Two people were injured after a knife attack near the former offices of the satirical magazine "Charlie Hebdo", and the police arrested two people suspected of the attack.
According to an unnamed police source, one victim was seriously injured, but not in a critical condition, Reuters reported.
French Prime Minister Jean Castex previously said that four people were injured.
Paris police said they had arrested a person believed to have carried out the attack near Bastille Square in eastern Paris.
In the meantime, the police arrested another suspect for the attack. For now, the motive behind the attack is unclear, as well as whether it has anything to do with the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, which moved to new offices after an attack by Islamic extremists in 2015.
Prime Minister Jean Castex cut short a visit to a suburb north of Paris and went to the Ministry of the Interior to monitor developments.
"Charlie Hebdo" was attacked by jihadists in January 2015 and killed 12 people.
The trial for that terrorist attack is ongoing. The widows of the attackers are scheduled to testify this afternoon.
The trial began on September 2 before a special court in Paris, more than five years after the bloody jihadist attacks on the premises of the Charlie Hebdo newspaper, police officers and a Jewish supermarket in which 17 people were killed.
A group of 14 people are accused of providing logistical support in various ways to the brothers Said and Sherif Kouache and Amédi Coulibaly, the attackers who launched a series of jihadist attacks in France.
According to the media, this historic trial, which is being held under high security measures, should be completed on November 10.
