 Priscard Thévenot, who is a candidate for the Macron-led Centrist Alliance Ensemble, was putting up electoral posters with her deputy and a party activist near Paris when the group attacked them, according to Prime Minister Gabriel Attal. Thévenot was not injured, but the Wednesday night attack left her two colleagues in hospital. A probe into an armed assault against a public official has been opened, but there's no clear motivation behind the attack yet. Four people, including three minors, are in custody.
