PrintFrench court charges teen
(JTA) -- A French court charged four teens in an attack on a Jewish girl.
The juvenile court filed preliminary charges Friday against four youths, aged 13-15, who allegedly insulted, knocked down and kicked a 14-year old Jewish girl as she was leaving school in a Paris suburb. She suffered light injuries.
The judge charged three of the youths with "violence with a religious or ethnic motive," the Associated Press reported, and the fourth was charged with not preventing a crime.
Investigators say the alleged attackers used Israel's war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip as an excuse to attack the girl.
