French authorities and media reports say a female teacher was stabbed to death by a high school student after he reportedly heard voices telling him to kill the teacher.
An investigation has been opened for suspected premeditated murder into the incident at a private Catholic school in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Bayonne prosecutor Jerome Bourrier said. Investigators were able to interview the suspect on Wednesday afternoon, he added.
Education Minister Pap Ndiaye, who travelled to Saint-Jean-de-Luz, said a minute of silence will be held in all French schools on Thursday at 3 p.m. A police officer guards the entrance to a private Catholic school in France after a teacher was stabbed to death.
