Police officers shot dead a man armed with a knife at Roissy-Charles-de-Gaulle airport in Paris.

The man threatened the officers with a knife on Wednesday morning, the police headquarters in the French capital said on Twitter.

According to airport officials, airport security guards had called border police to evict a homeless man from Terminal 2F.

The man insulted the officials, but initially left, it said.

Then he turned around and pulled out a knife.

One of the officers then shot him.

A photographer from the AFP news agency who observed the scene reported that the tall man ran towards the officers despite a warning.

The police officer then killed him with a single shot.
