A woman and her young daughters were stabbed at a French resort today by a man who felt they were inappropriately dressed. In this case, being ‘inappropriately dressed’ means they were wearing shorts and T-shirts.

The attacker, who fled, was described as a 37 year old man of Moroccan descent.

The man is believed to have attacked the three girls outside the family’s apartment before entering the building and attacking the mother. Jean-Marc Duprat, a deputy mayor for the town of Laragne-Monteglin in the Hautes-Alpes region said the suspect, who is not related to them, was upset they were wearing shorts and T-shirts. He’s believed to have met the family earlier in the week and was staying next door. The girls are believed to be aged eight, 12 and 14 while their mother is 46. The knifeman is alleged to have fled the scene by car before being arrested.

The article doesn’t mention the man’s religion but it’s probably safe to assume he’s not a Presbyterian.
