He tried to calm him down and protect us. “He told us to leave, but we didn’t really understand, so we ran and others went back upstairs.” A post on X, formerly Twitter, French interior minister Gérald Darmanin said: “A police operation took place at the Gambetta high school in Arras. The perpetrator was arrested by the police.” A man has been arrested by police.
