PARIS (AP) — France’s anti-terror prosecutor said Tuesday a suspected Islamic extremist declared allegiance to the Islamic State group before fatally stabbing a teacher in school attack last week.
The prosecutor, Jean-François Ricard, said, in a press conference , an audio recording was found by police investigators in the suspect’s phone. In it, the alleged attacker declared allegiance to the Islamic State and expressed “his hatred of France. ”
Ricard took no questions.
A teacher was fatally stabbed in the neck and three other people injured in the school attack Friday in the northern town of Arras.
