In Avion, around 11 a.m. this Thursday morning, an intrusion alert was also triggered. The high school received an anonymous call saying someone had locked themselves in a classroom and taken students hostage. After investigations, the number used was that of a student enrolled in the establishment.
The approximately 600 students present on site were still evacuated by the police. According to the mayor of the town, Jean Létoquart, the “rescue plan worked”.
“The police went around the school four times. The students were evacuated, no bomb. The sniffer dogs will carry out the final removal of doubt,” he told BFM Grand Littoral.
