Unfortunately it’s not the first time it happened. And it seems to happen more often these days.

It happens more since the law changed in 2017.

Our "Ministre de l'intérieur" said it happens less frequently but it has been fact checked and it's a lie.

For context the law changed in 2017 in the midst of the terrorist attacks in France. Unsurprisingly the law passed as a reaction to this is very ambiguous and unclear on when you can use your firearm if someone refuses to stop in a car.
