Man arrested over viral assault on Paris woman
Paris : A man has been detained on suspicion of assaulting a 22-year-old student who released a shocking video of the attack last month outside a Paris cafe which went viral online.
Surveillance footage of the incident shows a man hurling an ashtray from a table outside the cafe at Marie Laguerre, allegedly after she told him to “shut up” following lewd comments.
A police source said the suspect was detained Monday -- as he was leaving a psychiatric hospital -- on suspicion of assault and sexual harassment. Laguerre wrote on Facebook that she was returning home when a man started using “dirty language, in a humiliating and provocative manner”.
