FRANCE-CRIME

Flowers are attached to a gate on April 16, 2015 outside the building where Chloe, a nine-year-old girl who was snatched on April 15 in front of her mother from a playground, lived in the northern city of Calais. France was in shock on April 16 after a nine-year-old girl was found dead in a wood shortly after being snatched in front of her mother from a playground in the northern city of Calais. A Polish man with a long criminal history, who had been banned from French territory, has admitted to raping and murdering the girl, sources close to the investigation told AFP. The 38-year-old was arrested on Wednesday night near the woods where her naked, lifeless body was found. Chloe was playing with a friend when a man "appeared and grabbed her, forcing her to get into a red car," prosecutors said in a statement.
