Brussels, November 23 (RHC)-- Belgian authorities have arrested 16 people in a series of overnight raids as residents of the capital Brussels remain locked in their homes.

Belgium has imposed the highest threat level for Brussels as officials scour the city for Salah Abdeslam, a main suspect in the deadly attacks in Paris.

Residents have been told to stay away from the windows as public transportation, schools and museums have all been shut down. A spokesperson for the Belgian federal prosecutor said Abdeslam was not among those arrested in last night’s raids.
