The manifestation of Yellow Vests degenerated this Wednesday, November 28 in the municipality of Saint-Nazaire (Loire-Atlantique).

Some 200 people gathered at 14:00 in front of the sub-prefecture.

After a first time of dialogues, the demonstrators tried to return in the premises of the State, closed for the occasion, and guarded by policemen. Without success.

They then took the way to the town hall, for a new public gathering in the hall.

Tear gas

On the steps of City Hall, they were greeted by tear gas.

The voltage is then mounted a notch.

Armed with sticks, some yellow vests hammered the platform that must receive the rink, installed on the basin, while advancing again to the police.

Result, new bursts of lachrymos.

The carousel lasted for a while, until a dialogue between Commissioner Franck Perrault and some protesters broke out, causing the tension to subside.
