French police detain pupil suspected in school shooting in France in which two were wounded
Paris (AP) — French authorities have apprehended a 14-year-old student in connection with a school shooting that left the principal and another staff member injured. The motive behind the incident remains unclear. The detained youth, who was in possession of a firearm, was apprehended on Monday. The wounded staff members sustained injuries from 12-gauge shotgun ammunition, though the connection between this event and ongoing protests involving secondary school students across France remains uncertain.
The shooting took place outside a middle school that was not affected by the student demonstrations on the day of the incident.
