Paris CNN —An 11-year-old British girl was shot dead in Saint-Herbot, a hamlet in Brittany, western France, on Saturday, according to the local prosecutor. Her 8-year-old-sister escaped and was found “unharmed but in a state of shock,” Quimper prosecutor Carine Halley said in a statement on Sunday. Sophie Pr√©Vost/Maxppp/ZUMA“We thought they were playing with firecrackers,” Yannick, a neighbor who heard the gunfire, told CNN affiliate BFMTV. “The youngest girl came running to the neighbors shouting: ‘My sister is dead, my sister is dead,’” Yannick said. Marguerite Bleuzen, the mayor of Plonévez-du-Faou, a town bordering Saint-Herbot, told BFMTV Sunday she had been made aware of a dispute between neighbors several years ago.

PARIS, June 12 (Reuters) - An 11-year-old British girl has been shot dead in the garden of her home in Brittany, western France, following a years-long dispute between neighbours over land, the local prosecutor and a town hall official said. The family were enjoying a warm evening on Saturday in their garden in the small village of Saint Herbot, near Quimper, when a Dutch neighbour shot at them several times, the prosecutor said. Britain's Foreign Office said it was providing consular assistance to a British family following a shooting. Regine Guillot, secretary of the nearest town hall in Plonevez-du-Faou, said the British family had lived in the hamlet for five years and that the Dutch neighbour was a private man. The shooting comes just days after a British toddler was among four children and two adults stabbed in the tranquil town of Annecy in the French Alps.

☆ Older Americans are moving in with people their age to play bocce, make art, and be their true selves
  + stars: | 2022-11-14 | by ( Robert Davis | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
Some older Americans are building cohousing communities instead of moving into senior living. That was until 2014, when the Salmons and a group of eight other seniors began developing Quimper Village, a cohousing community in Port Townsend for people ages 55 and older. The Salmons are part of a growing coalition of older adults who are choosing to live in cohousing communities with people who are about their same age. The website also highlights amenities such as a bocce court and an art studio, which residents also manage. Though Erde describes herself as an introvert, living at PDX Commons has allowed her to be more social, she said.
