An ambush on firefighters and police officers turned over Saturday night in the Bezier, southern France, injuring a police officer and wrapped an apartment in the flames.
The incidents occurred the day after the riots in Limoges, where no hundred hoodlums attacked passing cars, terrorizing the drivers.
Police and the Bezier Public Prosecutor’s Office are talking about a “trap” set up in class forces in this slum that has been converted into a drug trafficking center. The perpetrators “contacted the Fire Brigade and reported a fire in a trash can.” When the firefighters arrived, they were waiting for “no fifty people, some of whom had climbed on roofs of buildings,” said police chief Eric Aniel.

Firefighters called police for help and many police officers found themselves on arrival found “trapped” by riots. The “riots”, as he called them, ended when fire broke out in an apartment, from a cracker.
The fire was completely destroyed by the 130 -square -foot apartment, where they lived a woman with her three adult children. Ten other tenants of the building were safely removed.
On his facebook page, the municipality, led by Robert Menar, who was formerly close to the far -right, described the riots as “unacceptable”.
A police officer was also injured by a cracker, according to Anil.
Prosecutor Rafael Bayyan said the incidents are likely to be linked to the arrests of traffickers and the seizure of a significant amount of drugs in recent days in the Bezier. He clarified that no arrest has been made about last night’s riots.
