A teacher has been killed in a stabbing at a school in Arras, northern France. BFMTV reported that the victim taught French literature. A second teacher and a school security guard were in hospital with critical injuries, according to the local prefect. Europe 1 reported that the suspected attacker, who has been arrested, was on a watchlist of people known to be a security risk in connection with radical Islamism. Local media reported that he was a former pupil at the Gambetta-Carnot school. A police source told Agence France-Presse he was from Russia’s mainly Muslim southern Caucasus region of Chechnya. The Arras attack came almost exactly three years after Samuel Paty, a 47-year-old history and geography teacher, was killed in an attack by an 18-year-old Chechen refugee outside his school in the Paris suburb of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine on 16 October 2020
