alleged killer of chicago and strasburg's nordoff neighborhood. the twenty nine year old grew up here security forces finally caught up with him on thursday evening a full two days after the attack on the city's popular christmas market. so there's no question this individual matched the description of the person wanted since tuesday evening. they arrested him for us all. the moment they tried to arrest him whose office he turned around and opened fire is one of the then responded. and shot him dead. shot if she was already known to police for his long criminal record and radical islamist believes before he indiscriminately opened fire near the christmas market. but he managed to escape. the. security has been heavy in strasbourg since then now people say they are
9:03 am
relieved it's finally safe to go out. for everybody is quite hard for you to get just small boats to the killer is finally the usual for some of those men families shorts and you think you're snow in the city amazing video where she's going on the strolls aboard the christmas market it's reopening on friday france remains on high alert in the wake of the largest number of terrorist attacks which have shocked the country in recent years the tuesday. this attack has left stross book in mourning but determined not to give in despite the latest terrorist outrage. and our correspondent helen hunt various and stross bergen helena we understand that you actually witnessed the police operation last night walk us through what happened. that's right sarah shortly off to nine pm
9:04 am
here in france i was walking with my colleague when we saw three police vans make their way down the road just behind me at high speed despite this being a pedestrian area blue lights flashing we followed them and as we did we arrived at the area of an adult where we there understood that a police operation was underway and that the chief suspect twenty nine year old chevy for the shakeout france's most wanted man had been shot dead by all forty says senshi what happened is they'd been an operation that in the day police had left then later that evening there was a tip off and police then came across a man resembling chevy chick out they tried to speak to him when they did he opened fire on them they returned in kind neutralizing the suspect and then when we were in the area of noto if we gradually saw people start to come back out onto the street they were relieved off to a tense few days and fifty hour manhunt and international manhunt to this man
9:05 am
people were out on the streets people had opened up that the sash windows the sharing the loss of wine with offices some people were going around handing out whole little cakes typical to the region here in france so it's been very much a tense few days and that area where he was shot and killed on i mean it's not only the area where they eventually you know neutralized him as you as you say it's also where he vanished shortly after the shooting why did it take police so long to find out. that's the big question today sara that is the question that security forces will have to look into remember of course that france has been on its highest level of alert over seven hundred offices here in france were mobilized offices also immobilized across the border in germany border checks were in place
9:06 am
and she was found exactly where he disappeared which means that although as you can see here in strasbourg the christmas lights are back on the market here is open of the regular markets and life is getting back to normal and the investigation from most people here in. is concluded for authorities they have to work out who knew what tao was it possible that this man could have evaded authorities on several occasions slip under the radar and eventually be found in the very place he disappeared some fifty hours ago instead book no less tell us a little bit more about that hala about area and because i know you've been reporting extensively from there in the past twenty four hours it's where he was from it was not far from where police found him well more to be now. that's right sara we thought it was really important to go to the estate where she . lived to understand a little bit more about the man who had twenty seven criminal convictions starting
9:07 am
from the age of thirteen we went to a housing estate is often just a little bit west of course when we spoke to people there who knew him they said they were absolutely dismayed at the events of chuse day evening here but that said they did talk about an area where unemployment is high where job opportunities are few education opportunities off you we spoke to a community worker he said that can really lead to frustration here and we also spoke to someone who said that you know france's secular policy makes them feel sometimes as muslims that they are being stigmatized that they are the ones that are being made an example of and all of these factors of course can create friction in french society not something that france continues to struggle with twenty fifteen of course was the moment where increasing terrorism attacks came here on french soil and all of these things are something that the government will have to consider the investigation just beginning helen humphrey in strasburg thank you so

much. british prime minister theresa may has failed to persuade a huge leaders to make changes to the brags that deal reports from the summit in brussels say that the atmosphere was tense and that made was criticized for failing to properly articulate her wishes the british prime minister was hoping to secure reassurances about plants opposed by skeptics in the u.k. to prevent a hard border in ireland. back again in brussels and theresa may once again seeking help from the e.u. to quell resistance in the u.k. to her brakes a deal. at the heart of the debate the so-called backstop aimed at avoiding a physical border between northern ireland and the republic of ireland just a temporary agreement if nothing better comes up but theresa may can't get her party to agree to it and it looks like the e.u. is not willing to give any more handouts to the prime minister rediscussed the
9:09 am
backstop no way. for this agreement to proceed through as it's up to. that it's not open for. the head of the summit politicians in london put pressure on me to reopen the negotiations with europe in the end the e.u. gave the british prime minister some reassurance but no substantial changes. in this we see if assurances are needed because we haven't agreed all the details during the transition period then we want to move beyond that as quickly as possible. may have been hoping for more significant concessions to help sell her briggs's deal to u.k. lawmakers but without more gains in brussels she's unlikely to see an immediate breakthrough. and is following this summit we are joined now by our correspondent who is in the european council in brussels and barbara vessel is at parliament in london welcome to both of you and i like to begin with you because we understand
9:10 am
that e.u. leaders have criticized recently for failing to offer really a clear plan on how to help get her brags a deal through her own domestic parliament what's going on here. also going on here is that leaders are a bit irritated one exactly to recently ones what how they can help her get this deal cost her own parliament because the key sticking points have been clear all along the question of the backstop is nothing new it's nothing unknown all parties knew where the difficult t.'s here are and it was always clear that legal guarantees that an expiry date can be added to the bank's law it cannot be on the table because it renders the backstop meaningless it's like an insurance policy which the backs up is for the european union and if you put a time limit on it it makes no sense to have an insurance where the insurance
9:11 am
company can tell you how swayed into the insurance are well look we want to quit and so that is the situation at a recent days facing this would have been a game changer for her but that is not something you can offer so now i mean she's basically returning empty handed barbara what is the reaction there in the u.k. . the word humiliation of course looms large and if you take a look at today's papers this is no christmas present from the e.u. for to reason may that is the milder version but what's particularly interesting today are the conservative papers like the telegraph for instance where it says that she cannot fulfill the bricks it promises she made to her own party and that is the decisive point because just two days ago when this leadership challenge was looming against her and there was she promised i will go back and they will help me
9:12 am
and they will give the legal assurances to sort of neutralize the backstop and that didn't happen and her own party the right wing the park city is they will not stand down they're still on the rampage and they're still sort of constantly briefing against her and then finally also another import. piece today is in the times where it says that the conservative party now is under threat off split permanent split off the party of the right wing and the so will more moderate ring could part ways and that shows the depths of the problems that reason may now has she can't keep her party together and she is far from sort of somehow commanding a majority in parliament for her breaks a deal and even even within her own cabinet there is a deep rift and people are sort of really tearing government apart here and given those domestic to difficulties i mean georg surely the e.u. must be looking you know upon all of this why then on the e.u.
9:13 am
level are they refuse ing to give ground and you know we negotiate this deal at all . luxembourg prime minister yesterday evening said there's nothing more we can do and what he means by that is just we do want to avoid a cliff it's bracks it a bought having no deal will be better than a bad deal for the you like it is for ford for the u.k. and the reason is if the e.u. would make great concessions regarding the backs of for instance it renders the backs of meaningless it would also mean if they cross all sorts of red lines in order to bring the u.k. around it would mean that other member states in the you which would come over and say look can we have better conditions so it opens the box of the pandora and that you does not want to have that and finally it's also a bit of tactics because the if you have more concessions to me and i think took a look at the draft conclusions and there was
9:14 am
a bit more assurances not legal guarantees but some of the more fluffy language then you would do that just before and the next vote on the steel mattress with a view from brussels barber of a zone joining us from london thank you so much to both of you for your analysis. it's of get a quick check now some other stories making news around the world and to government protesters have marched through the hung carrying capital budapest for the second night in a row police using tear gas and pepper spray to push the crowd back from the parliament the protesters were triggered by changes to the labor code unions and opposition lawmakers say that the changes will hurt workers. the united nations security council has renewed authorization for humanitarian aid delivery is across borders and complex lines in syria the un's humanitarian affairs chief said that the deliveries are

9:16 am
a rebuke to president trump good of you washington correspondent my shrader has more. the war in yemen has largely been a background conflict for many americans until the murder of journalist a moment shoji in october the revelation that the saudi arabian crown prince himself may have directed the assassination has cast saudi arabia's actions on the international stage in a new light and brought the war in yemen back to the foreground u.s. lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have been see the thing over president trump to reaction to the murder and especially his continued about closeness to the crown prince today's actions by the u.s. senate one of the first truly bipartisan actions we've seen since president trump took office is a slap in the face to the president's policy is and a huge break of the republican party from its president while the resolution may be largely symbolic right now it could gain new traction in january when democrats take over in the house of representatives our correspondent in washington their
