A 17-year-old minor was arrested this Tuesday morning in Malakoff, in Hauts-de-Seine. He is suspected of having sent death threats and attacks to the digital work spaces of several high schools.

Since March 20, more than a hundred educational establishments have been the target of highly disturbing messages. Some of these missives, distributed to students’ ENT mailboxes, also contained beheading videos. The first round of threats initially targeting establishments in Île- de-France then extended to schools throughout the national territory.
