School killings leave stunned Austria and France searching for answers

Summary

Nutrition label

71% Informative

A 14-year-old boy from an ordinary family in Nogent , eastern France , stabbed a school assistant on Tuesday .

Not long afterwards in Austria , a 21-year old shot dead nine students and a teacher at a high school in Graz .

In both countries there is a demand for solutions and for a greater focus on young people who resort to violence.

Austria has one of the most heavily armed civilian populations in Europe .

For all the calls for greater security at schools, this crime took place literally under the noses of armed gendarmes.

For more information on the boy's state of mind, we must wait for the full psychologist's report.

He is perhaps more a middle-class loner, and his apparent normality suggests a crime triggered by internalised mental processes, rather than by peer-driven association or emulation.
