  "account": "A 14-year-old student opened fire with a hunting rifle at Joseph Lakanal college near Marseille on Monday, wounding a headteacher and a female staff member, Mayor Jean-Pierre Squillari reported. The supervisor at the school disarmed the young perpetrator before the arrival of police. Both victims were taken to the hospital, though their injuries were not life-threatening, according to Squillari.\n\nThe source indicates that the 14-year-old entered the school with the rifle concealed in a guitar case. The investigation will determine the exact circumstances of how the weapon was obtained and the precise nature of the shooting. Squillari stated that the student fired twice toward the principal and a teacher in a corridor.\n\nAt this time, there is no clear connection established between the school shooting and the three-week wave of student protests that have been occurring across France. These protests, some of which have been violent, began in late September and disrupted over 700 secondary schools, resulting in thousands of arrests. President Emmanuel Macron condemned the violent incidents during a Monday address.",
