Film of anti-sarkozy rioting in Grenoble

Submitted by jef costello on May 19, 2007

This video shows some fighting between police and demonstrators.
The explosions are either teargas grenades or 'flashballs' a flashball fires rubber bullets, I think they're the same as baton rounds in the UK. They are used quite frequently by police and often against the safety guidelines.

In the video a protester gets run over trying to block a police car driving away with another demonstrator who'd been arrested.

Gotta love how the cop firing the 'grenades' is masked up in a leather jacket and jeans.
