Dramatic footage has emerged showing a man being dragged in the street by heavily-armed police in Brussels.
Two officers wearing riot gear hold the man - who is dressed in a grey jumper and black pants - before he falls or is forced to the ground.
Heavily-armed police drag a man, who appears to have leg injuries, into the street before bundling him into a black vehicle
The man, who appears to be suffering from a wound to his leg, is held in the street as other officers stand guard with automatic weapons.
He is then forced into the back seat of a black vehicle.
It is not known whether the man is Salah Abdelslam, who was the subject of a four-month manhunt for his role in the 13 November Paris attacks.
Belgian authorities have confirmed that Abdelslam was arrested during a major police operation in the suburb of Molenbeek.
Local media reports say the 26-year-old was wounded in the leg during the operation.
French President Francois Hollande has said the capture of Paris attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam is a major victory, but warned the fight against terrorism is not over.
Europe's most wanted man was "caught alive" on Friday after being wounded in dramatic police raid in Belgium's capital Brussels.
"The battle against terrorism does not end tonight, even though this is a victory," Mr Hollande told a news conference in Brussels with Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel.
