Protests in France in support of the teacher

Thousands of protesters marched across France in support of teacher Samuel Patti, who was assassinated by an Islamic extremist.

People carried placards reading "I am a teacher" in French and chanted slogans. Chechen youth from an extremist group beheaded a teacher on Friday for allegedly showing a cartoon of Prophet Mohammad to his students.

The 11th person has been arrested so far in connection with the investigation, but no information has been released, according to the BBC. It is learned that the suspects arrested after the incident are also close relatives of the four.
