PARIS - A teacher
was gunned down along with his two children at a Jewish school in southern France Monday.
During the attack, the director of the Ozar Hatorah school in Toulouse saw his daughter shot and killed in
front of him. French President Nicolas Sarkozy has called the shootings a
national tragedy.
The gunman pulled up in front of the
Jewish school just before 8 a.m. and started shooting, authorities said. The
dead included a 3-year-old child, and a 17-year-old was wounded, according to
local prosecutor Michael Valet.
