Jean-Luc Mélenchon stated that Minister Nuñez indicated that no restraint instructions had been given to the internal security forces and that they could use all their weaponry. He denounced violence and police provocations, specifically mentioning a young person who allegedly lost an eye after a shot fired from 20 meters away, an attempted drowning, police who reportedly threw stones at CRS agents, and a severed hand. He called on elected officials and activists to intervene, to identify the provocateurs, and to collect testimonies about the conditions of ongoing police custody, which he referred to as "despicable." He also advocated for the state to enforce the police code of ethics and the obligation to display the RIO number, and to prioritize mediation and dialogue over repression. Mélenchon finally reminded, in his words, that these were children. #Justice #DroitsHumains #Police (translated)

Bleu Blanc Rouge reported that, on Friday, October 2, 2026, a plainclothes police officer was assaulted near the Gustave-Courbet high school in Belfort and hospitalized after losing consciousness. The author noted that the public prosecutor had opened an investigation for attempted voluntary homicide and that the Minister of the Interior had described the images of the assault as particularly violent. The author reported that the account AlertesInfos, followed according to him by more than 850,000 people, claimed that the policeman could be seen trying to drown a high school student. He added that the public prosecutor of Belfort, Paul-Édouard Lallois, disputed this interpretation: according to the elements cited by the author, the two men had slipped into a stream and the video that was broadcast had been edited. He also wrote that AlertesInfos had relayed the prosecutor's denial while maintaining its version, relying on testimonies from people present. Bleu Blanc Rouge accused the account of spreading unverified information while presenting itself as a neutral media. It also claimed that its manager, a student named Moussa according to public notices, was not a journalist and that the account had already been criticized in 2018 for relaying false information. The author finally characterized AlertesInfos and other accounts as pro-LFI activists, accusing them of spreading false information to incite anger among their supporters, and expressed the hope that the police officer would file a complaint after his recovery. #FakeNews #ViolenceUrbaines #Justice (translated)

Jean Bexon challenged the interpretation that a police officer had tried to drown a man. According to him, the individual had been arrested near Belfort after throwing stones at the police and had previously been spotted trying to start a fire in the woods. Bexon recalled that the fires in August had caused the death of two firefighters and that since then, individuals matching this profile had been closely monitored. He claimed that the video circulated was edited and showed a tense arrest. According to his account, the man had rebelled several times and had dragged the officer down a slope to a watercourse, where both had stumbled. Bexon estimated that the water was 10 centimeters deep, about ankle height, and said that the officer had quickly led the man to the bank before handcuffing him. He denied that the officer intended to drown him. Bexon also wrote that as he returned to his colleagues, the officer was confronted by a group, thrown to the ground, and beaten until losing consciousness. According to him, the handcuffed man then kicked him. He indicated that this was the officer shown in a video of the assault circulated online. #Désinformation #Policiers #Belfort (translated)
