Brigitte Macron relative beaten up at family’s chocolate shop

French first lady condemns what appears to be politically motivated attack in Amiens

The French president's wife, Brigitte Macron, has denounced an attack on her great-nephew, who was beaten up outside her family's chocolate shop in an apparent politically motivated assault.

Jean-Baptiste Trogneux was returning to his apartment on Monday evening above the Trogneux chocolate shop that he runs in Amiens in northern France, when he was set upon by anti-government protesters.
