About 500 people, mostly young people, marched through the streets of the city center chanting anti-capitalist and anti-fascist slogans.

"The youth fucks national fascism, Le Pen fascist dynasty", or "Pinault execution", in allusion to the Breton businessman, could we read on the facades.

A fire in the city center

Street furniture was destroyed and windows of bank branches were damaged, AFP also noted.

In a square in the city center, a fire was lit with construction equipment in particular, requiring the intervention of firefighters.
