Demonstranti su navodno zapalili više skutera parkiranih u blizini a onda i spriječili vatrogasce da uđu u stanicu.
The protesters, understood to be angry at a nearby concert by an artist they see as being too sympathetic to the Congolese government, appear to try and prevent firemen from tackling the blaze at Gare de Lyon.https://t.co/OFEQ5cqtE7
