Overview

• The attack occurred around 8:15 a.m. at collège Robert‑Schuman, where a 66‑year‑old music teacher suffered facial wounds and was hospitalized with no life‑threatening injuries reported.
• The 14‑year‑old fled and then inflicted neck wounds on himself during arrest; gendarmes resuscitated him and he was airlifted to Strasbourg hospital in critical condition after surgery and sedation.
• Prosecutors opened an inquiry for attempted homicide against a public‑service worker and a separate probe into the conditions of the arrest, while the national anti‑terror prosecutor is evaluating the case without being formally seized.
• Authorities report the student was placed in child welfare, identified as having a disability, and previously sanctioned for a fascination with Hitler and weapons, with motive still undetermined.
• Education minister Élisabeth Borne visited the site, activated emergency psychological support for students and staff, and said classes would resume Thursday with counseling in place.
