The World : Jet Hits School; 22 Killed

A French fighter plane crashed into a school in Bangui, Central African Republic, killing 22 people--many of them children--and touching off a violent anti-French demonstration in the former French colony. Thirty people were injured when the Jaguar jet came down in a heavily populated neighborhood near the airport. The pilot ejected safely after the plane developed problems after taking off on a training flight. It was one of four Jaguars based at Bangui. As rescue workers searched through the wrecked school, angry crowds threw rocks at cars driven by Europeans. In Paris, French officials announced that families of the victims will be compensated.
