Souffelweyersheim, France:
An attacker injured two girls, aged 6 and 11, in a knife attack near their school in eastern France on Thursday and was later arrested, officials said.
The 11-year-old was stabbed outside the school in the town of Souffelweyersheim, while the six-year-old was attacked by the same man nearby. Both suffered superficial injuries, police said. The attacker appeared to have no known links to radicals and was not previously known to security services.
