15-year-old teen charged with terrorism following alleged attempted mass stabbing at Lyon high school
A minor suspected of planning a knife attack at a Lyon school in the name of far-right ideology has been brought before a counterterrorism judge.
According to Le Monde, the 15-year-old was arrested Thursday and charged Friday by a counterterrorism magistrate. He is suspected of having planned a mass stabbing at a Lyon high school, motivated according to investigators by a far-right supremacist and racist ideology.
The case comes amid a context marked by the death of Quentin Deranque, another minor involved in radicalization cases. Details about how the arrest unfolded and the material evidence gathered in the investigation have not yet been disclosed.
