Mohamed Abrini also likely to be the "man in the hat' seen on CCTV before Brussels airport bombings.

One of Europe's most wanted fugitives and a key remaining suspect in November's Paris terror attacks has been arrested, Belgian media are reporting.

Fugitive Paris attack suspect Salah Abdeslam was captured in a terror raid in Belgium on Friday, a Belgian police source told NBC News.

Fugitive Paris attack suspect Salah Abdeslam was captured in a terror raid in Belgium on Friday, a Belgian police source told NBC News.

Belgian news outlets reported two people had been injured and arrested in the Brussels suburb of Molenbeek— including Abdeslam, 26, who has been on the run for more than four months.

A Belgian police source who requested anonymity confirmed the arrest to NBC News, but would not say whether Abdeslam was injured.

The coordinated ISIS attacks in Paris killed 130 people who were out enjoying a Friday night on Nov. 13, 2015. One of Abdeslam's brothers blew himself up in that terror spree, while another has repeatedly urged him to turn himself in.

Abdeslam, suspected of being the eighth person ISIS said took part in the attacks, is believed to have crossed into Belgium following the bloody spree. The terrorists who died in the siege were French and Belgian.

The third brother, Mohamed, has told Belgian broadcaster RTBF that he had noticed a "slight change" in his brothers' behavior — when they started praying more and gave up drinking — but said that they did not appear to have been "radicalized."

Earlier this week, a separate raid targeting suspects in the attacks resulted in the death of Mohamed Belkaid, 35. That name, and other personal details, match those of an ISIS fighter who wanted to be suicide attacker, according to a cache of documents obtained by NBC News.

Moleenbeek, a poor Brussels suburb, has a history of links to extremists. In the days after the Paris attacks, security forces detained several people there in a series of raids.
