Blast knocks out embassy windows in Paris PARIS, March 21 (UPI) -- A blast in Paris Wednesday shattered several windows of the Indonesian Embassy, but no casualties were reported, the Indonesian Foreign Affairs Ministry said. Police were investigating the explosion that occurred in an upscale neighborhood of Paris, CNN reported. The target of the blast was not known, the Indonesian ministry said in a statement. A "tremendous explosion" seemed to originate from two cars parked in the street, Sid Hagan, a former U.S. soldier living in Paris, told CNN. Police barricaded the area around the explosion, Hagan said.
