A gunman got on a train from Amsterdam to Paris, opened fire and wounded two people before being taken down by two Americans and, reportedly, a French actor.
Details aren't out yet, but one report said one of the Americans is a Marine and was wounded.

Edit:
Local news just reported both Americans were Marines, one was wounded, said to be serious.
The shooter was supposedly known to authorities as a possible threat.
All of this is so new, there may be some errors in reporting.

Hi Noel,
The story I heard on the evening news was the two Marines were on vacation, heard the gunman in the bathroom putting in a 'clip' and confronted him. One or both were injured in the melee, the gunman was well armed and is of Moroccan descent. He was taken into custody. The Marines thwarted a HUGE tragedy!

Bravo to these three courageous Marines! The injured Marine is now said to have non-threatening injuries, thank heavens! God bless them!

They relied on training and used their instincts instead of doubting what they overheard.
