An 11-year-old girl from a British family was shot dead while playing on a swing in her garden in France. A neighbour began firing shots at Solaine Thornton and her eight-year-old sister as their parents tended the barbecue in the village of Saint-Herbot, north of Quimper in Brittany. The suspect, described as a 71-year-old Dutch national, reportedly shut himself in his house following the incident but eventually surrendered to police and was arrested along with his wife.
