A 14-year-old girl is in a coma after being beaten up in front of Arthur-Rimbaud college in Montpellier. The attack was allegedly provoked by a wave of harassment and a call for violence launched on social networks.
The Minister of Education Nicole Belloubet referred to an “unbearable act” and announced the establishment of a listening cell and security teams. The prefect of Hérault called for calm and will meet the teaching team as well as the families.
