Paris Orly airport on lockdown as military officers scramble to scene.

'Orly Airport in the French city has been shut down and hundreds of passengers have been evacuated.
Military officers scrambled to the scene as fears were raised. 
It has since been confirmed that abandoned luggage sparked the alert. 



A spokesperson for Orly Airport posted on Twitter: "This is a classic procedure (military enforcement)
due to abandoned luggage, nothing more.

It was in reply to a tweet which read: "Alert attack #orly South. Blocked by the military outside the airport.
Prohibition to access even a foot."
It is believed the airport reopened shortly after the lockdown was put in place.

The incident comes just two months after a gunman was shot dead after trying to carry out a terror attack
at the same airport. He managed to wrestle a gun from a female police officer before being shot dead...'

It's just normal, they close a whole airport and call it normal... again.
