Two garbage collectors were arrested Friday after they stole a waste truck in order to discharge it in front of French President Emmanuel Macron's party headquarters, Paris police said. A police operation in Paris city center Friday morning stopped the pair before they could dump the garbage, a police official said. French media reported the two men are union activists and stole the truck in a northern district of Paris from colleagues who were at work. Paris waste trucks are equipped with geo-tracking. A few dozen people held a protest Friday at Macron's LREM party headquarters located near the site of the police operation.
