A brawl broke out between attendees at a rally for far-right French presidential candidate Eric Zemmour, in Villepinte, on Sunday, as several hundred supporters waited for his arrival. According to attendees, the brawl started when people attending the rally protested Zemmour and denounced racism. “A row in front of us, there were many men that stood up to show their ’No to racism’ t-shirts. It escalated all of a sudden and there was a stampede and we all thought we were going to be crushed,“ said one of the attendees. “It was a group of people pretending to be activists but they were just here for trouble.“ One of the Zemmour protesters said, “We are convinced anti-racists. We just came to say that not everybody agreed [with Zemmour] and we wanted to peacefully oppose this meeting.“ Police officers escorted injured people outside after attendees were seen throwing chairs and punching people in the crowd.
