NANTES, 04/06/2013 A TAN tram - Fabrice Elsner

A tribute far beyond the Pyrénées-Atlantiques. This Wednesday evening, public transport in Nantes and its users will also salute the memory of Philippe, 58, this bus driver who is brain dead after being beaten by four individuals on Sunday evening in Bayonne.

At 7:30 p.m., a minute of silence "in tribute to the driver, in support of his family, friends and colleagues" will be respected, said the management of Semitan in a press release. Vehicles (buses and trams) will stop for a minute before continuing their journey.

At the same time, more than 500 km away, a white march must start from the place of the attack, while the drivers of the transport network of the agglomeration of Bayonne Chronoplus started, this Wednesday morning, their third right of withdrawal day.
