More arrests over attempted attack on US bank in ParisA total of three suspects have so far been arrested in relation to the foiled bomb attack outside the US bank in Paris. Interior Minister Laurent Nunez said on Saturday he thought the war in the Middle East might have motivated the attempted attack. Police detained a first suspect, possibly a minor, in the early hours of Saturday just after he placed a device outside the bank building, near the Champs-Elysees. Police said the suspect arrested early Saturday outside the bank had told them he was a minor and from Senegal. The Bank of America, whose global headquarters are in North Carolina, is a multinational investment bank and financial services holding company.
