Twelve people are arrested after 145 people report being pricked by SYRINGES across international music festival

Twelve suspects have been detained after 145 people were 'pricked with syringes' at an international music festival. French police opened an investigation following reports the Fete de la Musique was infiltrated by attackers yesterday evening. Before the party in Paris, which authorities reported as having 'unprecedented crowds' posts had social media had called for women to be targeted. The interior ministry confirmed today 145 people had reported being stabbed with needles after millions had taken to the streets to celebrate. Paris police reported 13 cases in the capital. Officials did not say whether these were cases of so-called needle spiking with date-rape drugs such as Rohypnol or GHB, used by attackers to render victims confused or unconscious and vulnerable to sexual assault. 'Some victims were taken to hospital for toxicological tests,' the ministry said. In Paris, investigations were opened after three people including a 15-year-old girl and an 18-year-old male, reported being stabbed in separate incidents across Paris, prosecutors said. All three reported feeling unwell. Across France, 12 suspects have been arrested. Among them were four people in the southwestern city of Angouleme suspected of having targeted around 50 victims, a police source said. Apart from those suspects, more than 370 people were detained during the festival on various charges, including nearly 90 people in Paris. Fourteen participants in the festivities were seriously injured, including a 17-year-old hospitalised after being found sitting on the street with stab wounds to the lower abdomen. Thirteen members of law enforcement were also injured. The prefect of the Paris police, Laurent Nunez, said that 'no major incident has been reported'. Organisers at the Fete de la Musique have been contacted for comment. Footage circulating on social media also shows attendees in Paris partaking in aggressive behaviour on the streets amid the festivities. L'auteur du coup de pied dans le visage de cette femme doit être identifié et retrouvé @PoliceNationale @BrunoRetailleau @Gendarmerie #FetedelaMusique — Antho Ⓜ️ (@MAnthoParis) June 21, 2025 In one particularly shocking video, a man dressed in a blue T-shirt strikes a kick at a woman's head before pulling another male to the ground. The festival is an annual music celebration that takes place on June 21. On Music Day - as it is known in English - citizens and residents are urged to play music outside in their neighborhoods or in public spaces and parks. The occasion is now celebrated in 120 countries around the world. Organiser Emmanuel Sémo said: 'Over the past three years, this type of incident has unfortunately been on the rise in major cities, particularly in Paris, often amplified by viral TikTok challenges. 'However, at our event, we take these risks very seriously and have implemented heightened vigilance measures to ensure everyone's safety. 'Ahead of the EF FESTIVAL or VERSO FESTIVAL, we issued preventive messages across our social media channels, sent information by email to attendees, and displayed dedicated signage on site. 'Security checks were reinforced at the entrances, and patrols were increased throughout the venue to detect and prevent any suspicious behaviour. 'This year, we had two suspected cases out of over 17,000 attendees. After investigation by emergency services, both were proven to be false alarms. While this represents an extremely low incident rate, safety remains an absolute priority for us. We also note that no intervention from law enforcement was required during the event. 'The atmosphere remained positive, the audience was respectful and well-filtered at entry points; We're proud of the secure and welcoming environment we created.'

Moment huge fight explodes on Broadstairs beach AFTER police issued dispersal order to try deter anti-social behaviour

A mass brawl involving hundreds of youngsters yesterday broke out on Broadstairs beach despite police issuing a dispersal order which they said would 'disrupt antisocial behaviour'. Astonishing footage of the fight shows the massive group of youths surrounding two males who are throwing punches and slaps at each other on the walkway behind a row of beach huts on the Kent seafront. The altercation then spills onto the sand with the baying crowds screaming and seemingly urging the pair to continue fighting while terrified families and children flee the beach. Police officers could be seen arriving on the litter-strewn beach once the fight had cooled off but many of the youngsters had already left the area. The fight came just one day after Kent Police announced they had implemented a Section 34 dispersal order, which locals have since described as 'totally ineffective'. The onlooker, who captured the video of the brawl, posted to social media to say there was 'no sign of any law an order' in the area after police vowed the public would see 'additional patrols' over the weekend. He added: 'Is it time for the locals to form a group of volunteers to take matters into our own hands and get these f*****g urchins dealt with. 'We can't tolerate this bulls**t and if we don't make some kind of stand then people will stop coming here. And everyone [loses] out.' Astonishing footage of the fight shows hundreds of youths surrounding two males who are throwing punches and slaps at each other on the walkway behind a row of beach huts on the Kent seafront. The dispersal order had been put in place Broadstairs for 48 hours as of 4.30pm on Friday, June 20, and ended this afternoon. Kent Police said in a statement yesterday that the order was brought in because of concerns relating to a 'small minority of young people' in areas such as the town centre and the beach. They say these groups had been drinking underage, fighting each other and been reported for behaving 'aggressively' towards shop staff. They added that it granted officers 'additional powers' to 'instruct people to leave the area' and that anyone who returned after being dispersed would risk being arrested. However, many dismayed locals said the area was still unsafe. 'It's not safe for anyone under these conditions, they are out of control,' one local wrote on social media. Another added: 'I'm angry and so are the most of Thanet by the sound of it. But sadly the police are not making any kind of difference. 'I'm not suggesting that we group together and go out beating them up, but we have to get together and come up with good ideas and [have] them enforce it.' A spokesperson for Kent Police for told MailOnline: 'Kent Police was called to a report that a disturbance related to approximately 50 individuals was taking place on Broadstairs beach shortly before 3pm on Saturday 21 June. 'Officers attended and after completing enquiries a 17 year old boy was arrested and taken into custody. 'Later that day, the teenager was charged with assaulting a police officer and was bailed with conditions to attend Maidstone Youth Court at a later date. 'A dispersal order remains in place following concerns of antisocial behaviour involving a small minority of young people in some public areas, including the town centre and beaches. 'Local officers will be on patrol to provide a visible presence and to ensure the area remains a safe place for all.'
