PARIS: French police arrested a man who had threatened to blow himself up at Iran's consulate in Paris, police said on Friday.
A police source had told Reuters the man was seen at about 11 am (0900 GMT) entering the consulate, carrying what appeared to be a grenade and explosive vest.
The man exited the consulate and was being searched by special police forces and was not actually carrying explosives, a police source said.
French police earlier cordoned off the Iranian consulate, Reuters reporters saw.
