London attack: Mum of French schoolboy caught up in Westminster carnage reveals how three of his classmates were mowed down
THE three French teenagers knocked over by the terrorist’s car on Westminster Bridge have been identified locally as Victor, Yann and Thomas.
All were in the "exact line that the car took" during Wednesday's attack, said a source at St Joseph’s high school in Concarneau, north west France, where all the boys attend.
"Two of them are in a particularly bad way, and are being treated at St Thomas’ hospital in London.
"Members of their families, including parents, are now with them," added the source.
It has emerged today that the school had lost an ex-pupil during the Paris attacks last year.
The French government put on a military plane on Wednesday night, which flew families from Brittany to London.
Isabell Calveze, whose son Kilian was in the St Joseph’s party of around 90, said she soon established that he was unharmed physically, but in a very bad way psychologically.
Ms Calveze said: "My son saw everything, I knew quickly that he was fine, but he saw his comrades hit by the car and I imagine that psychologically it must be a shock, and that he won’t be well after this.
"My son wrote to me that within twenty seconds he could have been hurt by the vehicle too.
"But the pupils were taken care of very quickly and very well, they were greeted on a boat on the Thames and the British authorities debriefed them."
Ms Calveze said that her daughter in France first told her about the terrorist incident.
"It was my daughter who alerted me, I did not have time to be afraid, I looked at the news channels and I got in touch with my son."
Parents and other relatives of the children were today gathering around St Joseph’s, along with other concerned locals.
It comes as the Eiffel Tower in Paris last night turned off its lights in tribute to the victims of the Westminster horror attack.
