Ten secondary schools were evacuated on Tuesday following bomb threats. All of them are located in the Grenoble area.
These were the lycées Stendhal, Champollion, Louise-Michel, Vaucanson, des Eaux-Claires, André-Argouges and Emmanuel-Mounier in Grenoble as well as the lycée Marie-Curie in Échirolles, Porte de l’Oisans in Vizille and Jacques-Prévert in Fontaine. At the lycées Porte de l’Oisans in Vizille and Jacques-Prévert in Fontaine, security concerns were allayed in the late morning. The Marie-Curie and Vaucanson high schools had already been evacuated on Monday.
On Monday evening, the public prosecutor of Grenoble declared that “the Lycée Vaucanson in Grenoble and the Lycée Marie-Curie in Échirolles have received the same message about an Islamist-motivated bomb threat. It is of course impossible to know at this stage whether the author of this e-mail is an actual criminal acting in the name of Islam or not”.
