Paris ‘yellow vest’ march demonstrator loses hand

PARIS: A yellow vest demonstrator lost his hand during clashes with police outside the parliament building in Paris on Saturday. He was hit in the calf by a type of stun grenade as the cops attempted to disperse people.

“He wanted to bat it away so it didn’t explode by his leg -- and it went off when he touched it,” a witness said. Paris police said the man had lost four fingers. AFP
