  "account": "A 14-year-old student has been arrested after opening fire with a shotgun at Lakanal middle school in Aubagne, southern France on Monday morning. The principal and a teacher were shot, but no children were injured. The headteacher, 53, was hit in the leg and lower back, while the 37-year-old teacher was struck in the thigh. A third person also sustained minor injuries. The student entered the school with a shotgun in a guitar case and was restrained by a staff member before being taken into custody. Mayor Jean-Pierre Squillari said all students were quickly made safe, but some were psychologically affected. Education Minister Édouard Geffray and Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez are set to visit the school. The incident is not believed to be related to ongoing protests over school conditions.",
