On the menu for Christmas Eve in Rennes: checks on wearing masks and health passes. At the request of the Ille-et-Vilaine prefecture, the police targeted the funfair installed on the Charles-de-Gaulle esplanade. The operation mobilizes eight police officers. “This is not an offensive action. The idea is to be flexible and educational, ”explains Commissioner Bui Trong. For the occasion, the secretary general of the prefecture of Ille-et-Vilaine, Ludovic Guillaume, is present. “Even if most of our fellow citizens are respectful of health instructions, there is no question that the end of the year holidays is a period of relaxation,” said the official.
For their part, the showmen show understanding, like Steve Fleury: “The police do their job. It is reassuring for us and for customers to see them ”. Assessment of the day’s operation in Rennes: 37 checks and a fine of 135 euros for not wearing a mask. “A young person whom we have checked several times this week for the same reason”, indicates a police officer. Operations also took place in Redon, Saint-Malo and Dinard. News is expected in the coming days in Rennes and throughout the department.
