The teenager is a student in 4th grade. He arrived at the college shortly after the start of the school year, after being the victim of aggression in his previous establishment, according to a source close to the investigation.
The presumed perpetrator of the stabbing, identified as also being a teenager, had arrived accompanied by at least two people, according to the first elements of the investigation entrusted to the police at the Sarcelles police station. “The perpetrators fled when a sports teacher arrived at the scene of the attack, the motive of which was unknown yesterday,” said another police source. The main suspect finally surrendered to the police on Saturday morning.
