The fourth suspect linked to this week’s Paris terror attacks left France days before the assault on Charlie Hebdo magazine and has made her way to Syria, according to a French police official.

Hayat Boumeddiene, 26, believed to be the wife of Amady Coulibaly -- the man killed after taking hostages in a kosher grocery in eastern Paris on Jan. 9 -- flew to Istanbul from Madrid on Jan. 2 and crossed the border to Syria on Jan. 8, the official said. Her path was earlier reported by Le Parisien.
