For the police officers of Metz, Thionville and Hagondange, it is the drop that overflows the vase: “We have been understaffed for years, we had the yellow vests, the Covid without the masks and today we are called racists. The police are not racist “support the agents of the night sector of the sector Metz. “We make amalgams with the Georges Floyd case. They want to ban us from a police technique that has nothing to do with that practiced in the United States. It is a means of control which protects us and the person arrested. Colleagues who make mistakes are punished. We are waiting for the bad apples to be released from here ”.
The demonstration was decided late this Friday evening with the night staff. It only lasted a few minutes. The workforce dispersed as a stormy rain began to hit Metz.
