As French Riots Escalate, 'Wild Horde' Beats Police Commander Unconscious, Stomps His Head

Authored by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,

A French police commander in his sixties was chased, knocked down and kicked in the head until he blacked out outside a Belfort high school on Friday morning. Prosecutors have opened an investigation for attempted murder of a public official.

The officer is the local chief of territorial intelligence. He was in plain clothes, trying to arrest a youth suspected of starting a fire.

This is not a scuffle on the edge of a school complaint. It is the second mob hunt of a lone officer in two days, filmed, shared, and dressed up by parts of the press as a student protest about classrooms.
