A man believed to have been an accomplice of the shooter who killed a policeman on Paris' Champs Elysees in April has been placed under a formal investigation and remanded in custody.
DNA was found on the weapon used by the shooter, identified as Karim Cheurfi, who opened fire on a police vehicle parked on the famous avenue in Paris, killing one officer and injuring two others before being shot dead.
Judicial sources say the man arrested on Saturday is unknown to anti-terrorist services.
