France counter-terror unit probes 14-year-old school shooter

France's national counter-terrorism prosecutor's office has assumed jurisdiction over the investigation of a 14-year-old student who shot and wounded a school principal and teacher with a shotgun. The minor injuries suggest a contained incident, but the counter-terror designation signals a potential ideological motive, which is unconfirmed. This marks a notable escalation in France's response to school violence, potentially reflecting broader security concerns.
