Is he a member of the black block? Saturday afternoon, a firefighter was arrested on the sidelines of the demonstration of "yellow vests". He had in his possession Molotov cocktails and fireworks. He was then taken into custody before being released. According to France Bleu Paris, it would be a firefighter who officiates at the departmental fire and rescue service of Val d'Oise (Sdis 95), in Île-de-France. An investigation has been opened.
"This agent no longer has a place in the fire department"
"While respecting the presumption of innocence, precautionary measures, aimed at forbidding him to take guards, have already been taken pending the results of the investigation," responded on Monday the Sdis 95, who added in a statement wishing to be a civil party. "This agent has no place in firefighters since he carried incendiary devices during a demonstration."
