Three children were found dead, their father injured and their mother in shock Saturday at their home in a small village in the north-eastern part of France, the local prosecutor said, dpa reported. A fourth child was freed and under the care of psychologists, and the mother was being held by police. Prosecutor Dominique Alzeari told Dernieres Nouvelles d'Alsace that the first evidence "indicates that the mother was the perpetrator." He added that authorities believe the violence to have been caused by a family dispute. -- SPA 23:51 LOCAL TIME 20:51 GMT تغريد
