Description: Subscribe to our channel! rupt.ly/subscribe Protesters join a silent march in the streets of Nantes on Saturday, August 3, following the death of a 24-year old man who fell into the Loire River during a police action in June and whose body was retrieved on Monday. The march will be followed by a demonstration against police brutality. The body of Steve Maia Canico was found several hundred metres from the spot where he was seen for the last time on the night between June 21 and 22, when police forces dispersed revelers at a music festival, allegedly forcing some into the river. Tear gas and batons were reportedly used during the action. French authorities reportedly said they will block potential trouble makers from accessing parts of the city centre after the Yellow Vests movement said they would join the march.
