An illegal immigrant mother held a principal and a teacher hostage at gunpoint at the Kindergarten Clement-Rosalle in Nice, France. The 36-year-old suspect, whose two children attend the school, used a firearm and a knife, allegedly simulating a mock execution by pointing the gun at the principal's head and pulling the trigger twice. She held the knife to the principals throat and demanded the presence of the teacher involved in the conflict. When the teachers arrived, the suspect attacked the two educators, as a result of which the teacher was slapped and the principal suffered severe pain in her jaw. The suspect fled before 10:00 am and was later arrested by the police. It has been confirmed that she is staying in France illegally and under an active deportation order.
