We can see the tension of the scene on the video posted on social networks.
This Wednesday evening, around 7 p.m., a crew from the Val d'Yerres anti-crime brigade (BAC) patrols the Mazières district, in Draveil.
"A young man then insulted the police officers as they passed," said a police source.
The officers stop and get out of their car to question him.
But the suspect rebels.
The agents of the BAC put themselves there to several to make it return in their vehicle.
A crowd suddenly forms around the intervention.
Now the police are disarmed

On a video, we see about twenty young people surrounding the car, shouting to put pressure on the BAC.
Tear gas was used a few meters away to disperse the crowd.
In the confusion, one of the police officers had his truncheon stolen, known in the jargon as “tonfa”.
Whoever is filming brandishes it, threatening the agents.
He was not arrested and the tonfa was not found.
"As they left the scene, the officials were the subject of projectiles, one of which hit the rear window of the car," added a police source.
Only one arrest took place.
A policeman is said to have suffered a cheekbone injury after being hit.
“This violence is intolerable, I give my full support to the injured colleague, reacts Guillaume Roux, departmental secretary of the Unit-SGP 91 police union. These offenders are ready to do anything to free one of their own.
Exemplary sanctions are needed to put an end to this feeling of impunity.
