Two parents break into a school

On January 19, the staff and the director of the Porte du Miroir nursery school in Mulhouse were violently threatened by two parents of students who broke into the school grounds.

Two parents broke into their child's school, at the end of class time, to utter unprecedentedly violent death threats to school staff and the principal on Tuesday, January 19 . The two individuals, reported for mistreatment of their child by the director of the establishment, attempted to intimidate the latter.

Threats followed by an altercation that the children and the educational team witnessed and say "very affected", reports the academy according to Figaro, adding that the latter "received the support of the district inspector and the assistant for school affairs of the city of Mulhouse".

After these acts of violence, the Porte du Miroir school closed its doors before being reopened on Thursday, January 21, two days after the incident. An investigation has been opened. “Both parents were taken into custody but, the mother being several months pregnant, her condition was deemed incompatible with police custody”, indicates Le Figaro.

"I believe that after what happened with Samuel Paty, these are facts that can lead to such consequences"

As for the director of the establishment, she had 5 days of total incapacity for work (ITT), the parents will appear before the criminal court of Mulhouse within a few weeks to "contempt of an agent charged with a public service mission and death threats".

Both parents face a fine of around 7,500 euros and several months' imprisonment. "I believe that after what happened with Samuel Paty, these are facts that can lead to such consequences", said the prosecutor.

The Strasbourg Academy indicates that a listening and support unit has been set up for all school staff "with pedagogical advisers from the district, a Psy-En and a specialist school teacher". To ensure the safety of educational staff and the director, the facility was placed under surveillance.
