French police have detained 12 suspects after 145 people reported being pricked with syringes during the country’s annual street music festival, officials said Sunday.

Millions of people took to the streets across France on Saturday evening for the Fete de la Musique, with authorities reporting “unprecedented crowds” in Paris.

Before the party, posts on social media had called for women to be targeted during the festivities.

      I am not saying it definitly happened. I just argued that it might be true and I don’t think it’s a good idea to not take such reports serious as many people here stated it is bs before details were public.
