This follows on from the shooting of three French paratroopers of north african origin in the same region last week:

France shooting: Toulouse Jewish school attack kills four
19 March 12 11:57

A gunman on a scooter has opened fire on a Jewish school in the French city of Toulouse, killing three children and a teacher, police say.

A teenage boy was seriously injured in the attack outside the Ozar Hatorah school in the north-east of the city.

Police say there are similarities with the killings of three soldiers in two separate incidents in the same part of France last week.

All three - of North African origin - were shot by a man on a scooter.

A paratrooper out of uniform was shot dead in a residential area of Toulouse just over a week ago, while two soldiers were killed and a third wounded as they used a cashpoint in the town of Montauban, some 29 miles (46km) away, on Thursday.

But President Nicolas Sarkozy, who has gone to the scene, said it is "much too early" to know if there is a definite link.

"Whatever happens," he said, "faced with this kind of toll, we can say that the French Republic as a whole has been hit by this appalling tragedy."

The grand rabbi of France, Gilles Bernheim, who is travelling to the south-western city, said he was "horrified" and "stunned" by what had happened.

Israel also said it was horrified, adding that it trusted the French authorities "to shed full light on this tragedy and bring the perpetrators to justice".

Monday's attack happened as children and their parents were arriving at the school, in the Joliment area of the city.

A teacher at the school, believed to be aged 30, and his two children, aged three and six, are reported to have been killed.

The third child killed was aged between eight and 10 years old and belonged to another teacher at the school, French media report.

A 17-year-old was seriously injured.

"[The gunman] shot at everything he could see, children and adults, and some children were chased into the school," local prosecutor Michel Valet said.

You ever been to Europe?  Those things are everywhere.  Hell, during the Cold War the French weaponized scooters.  Attached recoilless rifles to them.

Looks like a right-wing nutjob, Zoups?

Targeting paratroops from Africa and Caribbean seems like the work of a racist. Targeting Jews in Europe? Could be anybody.

On the contrary, staying balanced seems like a crucial requirement during such undertaking.

I noticed European police often carry machine pistols.  I thought that odd.
