Two individuals arrested after writing a homophobic tag on the LGBT center in Nice. The center coordinator tried to pursue the perpetrators of this act of vandalism before being hit in the face with a tear gas canister.

The coordinator filed a complaint and the center reserves the right to file a civil suit, they said in a press release. “We say it firmly to the people who want to attack us: we will not back down, we will face it and we will fight back,” they added.
