PARIS (AFP) -- French police stopped an apparent bomb attack outside a US bank in Paris early Saturday when they arrested a person about to set off a homemade explosive device, officials and sources close to the case told Agence France-Presse. The incident occurred around 3:30 a.m. in front of a Bank of America building in the chic 8th arrondissement, a couple of streets from the Champs-Elysees.
