A 5th grade student threatened her English teacher with a knife shortly before 10 a.m. this Wednesday at the Hautes-Ourmes college in Rennes (Ille-et-Vilaine). “She was overpowered in one of the corridors by adults of the college and arrested by the Rennes police,” the establishment said in a message addressed to parents of students. ” There are no injuries. » The anti-terrorism prosecution does not wish to examine the facts.
According to our information, the teenager aged “11 or 12”, of Mongolian origin, arrived at the establishment at the start of the school year in September 2023. “Today I want to be myself,” reportedly declared the teenager brandishing her bladed weapon, to act “like in Arras”, according to a person present in the establishment. As a reminder, on October 13, 2023, Mohammed Mogouchkov killed a teacher and seriously injured two other people.
” I am crazy “
A psychiatric examination was requested by the public prosecutor and the student, “dangerous to herself”, was hospitalized in the evening. The student confided to his teacher: “I’m crazy, I want to kill someone,” before threatening the teacher. “The question of this child’s discernment arises,” said prosecutor Philippe Astruc, adding: “certainly, this child has behavioral or communication disorders.”
Classes were interrupted from 11:30 a.m. and students who started at 10 a.m. were not able to enter the establishment. A psychological support unit will be set up in the coming hours: the school doctor and the academy rector are currently on site.
Middle school students in class were asked to close their classroom door after someone shouted that there was a knife. When contacted, the management of the establishment – the only college classified REP + in Rennes, which has major social difficulties – did not wish to communicate for the moment. The police are still on site.
“Apparently with the intention of killing his English teacher”
“According to the first elements collected, to be confirmed, this morning, between 9:30 a.m. and 9:50 a.m., (…) a student born in 2011 in Marseille (…) came to class armed with a large knife,” according to the prosecutor . “During the lesson, in class, she brandished a 17 cm knife towards the victim who ran away. She allegedly followed her before being disarmed by establishment staff. There are no injuries. » According to a police source, the young girl was angry with the teacher, who had confiscated her cell phone last week, and she therefore premeditated her action.
According to the same source, the teenager’s parents are regular Mongolian refugees. Neither they nor she are known to the intelligence services.
A “criminal” investigation entrusted to the Rennes Departmental Security was opened by the Rennes public prosecutor’s office. The psychiatric examination of the teenager concluded that the minor was “dangerous to herself” and that her condition required care in a specialized environment, the Rennes prosecutor’s office indicated on Wednesday evening. A provisional placement order was taken by the public prosecutor, entrusting the minor to the Departmental Council with hospitalization in a specialized environment for the time necessary for care. The judicial restraint measure was lifted and the minor was hospitalized Wednesday evening in this context.
