PARIS— A French teacher who had recently shown students cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed was beheaded outside his school on Friday, in what President Emmanuel Macron called an "Islamist terrorist attack."
French anti-terror prosecutors said they were treating the assault as "a murder linked to a terrorist organization." Four people, including a minor, have been arrested, a judicial source told AFP early Saturday. All were related to the assailant, the source added.The victim was a history teacher who recently showed cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed as part of a class discussion on freedom of expression, police said.
According to a judicial source, an identity card found on the assailant indicated he was born in Moscow in 2002, although investigators were waiting for formal identification. "I saw him today, he came to my class to see our teacher. It's shocking that I won't see him again," said Tiago, a student in sixth grade.

True religion is love in action.
