The Paris prosecutor’s office is investigating a hoax hostage alert in Paris after two teenagers said they were behind a counter-terror operation that turned out to be a false alarm.

The young men, aged 16 and 17, told French media they made a hoax call to police that sparked the major operation which saw hundreds of police officers deployed to central Paris, saying they “did it for the thrill”.

The pair reportedly said they phoned the police on 17 September and said there was a group of North Africans carrying weapons in Saint Leu Saint Gilles church, prompting police to take action.

On the day of the alert they boasted online that they were committing an act of so-called “swatting” – when hoaxers make anonymous threats to trigger a response from police and emergency intervention groups known as SWAT teams.

One of the alleged hoaxers wrote on Facebook: “I carried out the worst ‘SWATT,’ I deployed helicopters, the government, 50 police vehicles into action. I’ve broadcasted it on Persicope, I told BFMTV and 10 newspapers.”

The unnamed assailants later told French newspaper l'Observateur: “The original plan was to ‘swatter’ a mosque but after Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray we thought it would work better with a church.

“We did it for the thrill. If people were afraid, that’s their problem.”

The pair are also said to have shared audio tapes of their conversations with police with the newspaper, in which an officer can be heard telling them that they receive many fake calls and asking them to verify information around the positions of the hostages.

The 20-minute recording reportedly goes on to hear multiple police officers asking for clarification about the number of people in the church, the physical appearance of the kidnappers and their equipment.

Hopefully the French authorities throw the book at them, repeatedly, at head height.

Or just throw them off a bridge.

For the thrills of course, if they're scared of falling, that's their problem.

I like the first comment:

Not a single mention of the fact they were JEW. Damn, those crafty AshkeNAZI jews are amazing. They can suppress all kinds of negative info against them.

You gotta love rabid anti-Semites.

Silly frenchies, don't they know the best way to create a terrorism hoax is to """"""""make""""""" a clock and then roam around showing it to people until one of them gets suspicious?

These teens missed out on an opportunity to cash in on a lot of free stuff.

It's not the fall that people should be afraid of. It's the landing.
