"Protestors" who set fire to French police car imprisoned
Sentences have been handed down to several anarchists who set fire to a police car in Paris while the drivers were still inside:
Seven people accused of launching a vicious attack on a police car in Paris last year have been handed prison sentences up to seven years.They really should've given them at least 20 years, because of the severity of the offense, even if thankfully, nobody was killed in the assault.
The assailants used iron bars to attack the vehicle, which was stuck in traffic, and later set it alight with a Molotov cocktail. Footage of the attack was widely broadcast in France and the case caught media attention worldwide.
The attack in May 2016 took place on the sidelines of a demonstration staged by police officers denouncing violence against the force, following repeated clashes with protesters during marches against controversial labor law changes.
French media reported that Antonin Bernanos, who was accused of assaulting the driver inside the car, was handed a five-year sentence with two years suspended. The driver escaped with minor injuries.
