Grenade Thrown into Beauty Salon in Grenoble
A grenade was thrown into a beauty salon in Grenoble, France, causing injuries to six people, including a 5-year-old child. All injuries resulted from glass shards when the storefront was shattered. This incident reflects ongoing violence in the city.
A grenade was thrown into a beauty salon in Grenoble on Friday afternoon, injuring six people from broken glass. Video evidence showed at least two people were involved - the grenade thrower and a cameraman.
The prosecutor characterized it as an 'act of intimidation' rather than an attempt to kill, since there was no significant explosive charge. Grenoble, which hosted the 1968 Winter Olympics, currently struggles with poverty and drug trafficking. The salon is located near a district known for drug-related violence.
This is not an isolated incident; a year earlier, another grenade attack in a different suburban area injured 15 people. Law enforcement is investigating, and given the previous quick resolution, authorities hope to identify the perpetrators soon.
