Storyful

Demonstrators took to the streets in Lyon following the first round of the French presidential elections on Sunday, April 10. This video, filmed by Twitter user Bill Denbrough, shows protestors singing anti-capitalism chants, smashing bottles and shooting fireworks around the city. President Emmanuel Macron secured 27.8 percent of the national vote in the first round and will campaign to keep his position against National Rally party leader Marine Le Pen, who received 23.1 percent of the vote. Local media reported that demonstrators damaged a bus shelter and threw “projectiles” at the windows of Lyon’s town hall while votes were still being counted. Credit: @Bismuthback via Storyful
