14-year-old charged with stabbing high school teacher in France

A 14-year-old student has been charged with the murder of a teaching assistant stabbed to death earlier this week, prosecutors said on Thursday, as schools across France held a minute's silence.

The high school student was arrested after allegedly stabbing a school monitor, a 31-year-old mother of a young son, to death during a bag check in the eastern town of Nogent.

Quentin G. was charged with "murder of a person in a position of authority," which under French law is an aggravating circumstance, and was ordered to be held in custody.

He has also been named as a person of interest in the attack on a gendarme during his arrest shortly after the fatal stabbing, prosecutors in the eastern French city of Dijon said.

This latest school attack has caused widespread shock in France, with President Emmanuel Macron denouncing what he called an increase in violence.

Prosecutors say the student wanted to attack "any" monitor after being reprimanded a few days earlier for kissing his girlfriend. As a juvenile, the suspect faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison instead of life in prison./CNA
