French President Emmanuel Macron slapped in face | DW News

Police made two arrests after the French president was slapped in the face by a man in the crowd during a walkabout session in France’s Drome region. The incident took place as Macron visited the southeastern region to meet restaurateurs and students to talk about how life is returning to normal as the country’s COVID lockdown eases. Macron had been seen walking towards a crowd of apparent well-wishers behind a metal barrier in the village of Tain-l’Hermitage. He reached out his hand to greet the individual, who then hit him.
