A teenager in France has been arrested after stabbing his father to death and then sharing images of the crime scene online, investigators said on Tuesday.

The 17-year-old in Ploeren, a town of about 6,000 in the northwestern Brittany region, called police late Saturday to say that "he had just stabbed his father to death in the family home", prosecutor Francois Touron said in a statement.

On arrival, police found the dead man's body with multiple knife wounds, and arrested the son, who was under the influence of large amounts of alcohol.
