French police have seized 72 firearms and more than 3,000 rounds of ammunition from the home of screen legend Alain Delon. A shooting range was also found at the actor's home in Douchy-Montcorbon, about 135km (84 miles) south of Paris. The search on Tuesday was ordered after a court-appointed official sent to Mr Delon's home noticed a weapon and alerted a judge. The latest legal exchanges were over Mr Delon's medical treatment and last month a court-sanctioned doctor examined him, but his conclusions were immediately disputed by the children. Mr Delon's last major public appearance was to receive an honorary Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2019.
