Teen who lost eye in Tours school blockade files complaint against police

The family of a 16-year-old boy who lost sight in his right eye during a school blockade in Tours has filed a complaint for violence by a person holding public authority, the prosecutor's office announced Sunday. The prosecutor stated that medical examinations found the injuries "compatible with the impact of a rubber bullet" from a LBD launcher. The teenager was hospitalized, and a video of him with a bloody head circulated widely on social media. The boy and his mother have been heard by the police inspectorate (IGPN) as the investigation continues. Authorities said officers intervened with firefighters to extinguish fires and were targeted by projectiles.
