In a gesture of solidarity with their co-worker who was attacked at Tremblay-en-France yesterday evening (and who, in spite of being blinded by mace or some similar substance, managed to control the fires started by the Molotov cocktails his attackers threw into the bus), 450 bus drivers on 117 routes in the departments of Seine-et-Marne, Seine-Saint-Denis and Val-d'Oise stopped work at 8 p.m. tonight, La Croix reported. 

Le Figaro devotes almost four lines to this news story: Le Monde, none (although it is only right to observe that online editions of newspapers cannot be relied upon as evidence of what does or does not actually appear in print). TF1/LCI mentions that the driver was "not wounded", apparently not considering mace a weapon.
