Acid attack on 4 in French station

-

PARIS — Four American college students were sprayed in the face with acid Sunday morning at a train station in the French city of Marseille, but authoritie­s don’t think extremist views motivated the 41-year-old woman who was arrested as the alleged assailant.

Boston College, a private Jesuit university in Massachuse­tts, said Sunday that the four female students, all juniors, were treated for burns at a Marseille hospital.

Police described the suspect as “disturbed” and said the attack was not thought terror-related.
