Seven tags with racist content and hostile to the project to transfer a reception center for asylum seekers were found in Saint-Brévin-les-Pins. The inscriptions were probably made during the night from Wednesday to Thursday, only a few hours after a rally in support of the resigning mayor Yannick Morez.

The tags include an "AF" signature that could refer to the ultra-right Action Française movement. The gendarmerie has opened an investigation.
