TaylorSwift 162,352 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 A knifeman fatally stabbed a teacher and wounded two other people in an attack at a school in the northern France city of Arras on Friday and the investigation was handed to the anti-terrorism prosecutor's office. The La Voix du Nord regional newspaper reported the teacher was killed trying to stop the attacker from inflicting harm. Police said two other men, a second teacher and a security guard, were in critical condition. The suspected assailant was arrested. One of his brothers was also detained nearby. Local people were told to avoid Arras city centre. The suspect was a former student of the Lycee Gambetta high school where the attack happened, a police source said. He was described by some as a Russian-born Chechen and by others as a Russian-born Ingush. BFM TV reported he was about 20 years old, and that he had been in France since 2008. A police officer, who was one of the first on the scene, has told Associated Press that the suspected attacker shouted: âAllahu Akbar.â The suspect was on a state watchlist of people known as a potential security risk, the police source added.  He had been closely watched since the summer with tails and telephone surveillance and was stopped as recently as Thursday for a police check that found no wrongdoing. A security source said an elder brother of the alleged assailant was serving time in prison for links to Islamist militant networks and glorification off terrorist acts. source source source https://store.taylorswift.com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
