15-year-old stabs teacher to death in front of students in Leeds
A 15 year-old boy stabbed a teacher to death at a school in Leeds, where the 61 year-old Anne Maguire taught Spanish.
Police were called to Corpus Christi Catholic College at 12:00 p.m. local time. The unidentified teen assailant was detained by teachers after the attack and turned over to police.
West Yorkshire Police Chief Superintendent Paul Money said “The incident itself was over very quickly and no other pupils were threatened or injured,” acknowledging “this has clearly been a very traumatic situation for those involved.”
Students at the school took to Twitter to express their condolences for the slain teacher. One tweet said Maguire “made our Year 11 best best time of our life, what an amazing woman RIP.” Another called her “probably the best teacher ever.”
Police described the stabbing as an “isolated incident.”
There was no further information regarding a possible motive for the stabbing. (UPI)
