Saint-Jean-de-Luz, FRANCE—A 16-year-old pupil stabbed a Spanish-language teacher to death on Wednesday at a Roman Catholic high school in the high-end beach resort town of Saint-Jean-de-Luz in southwestern France, government officials said.
Local prosecutor Jerome Bourrier said the pupil was being held in custody. A murder investigation is underway, indicating that they suspect the young man had planned his attack beforehand, the prosecutor said.
