Soldiers of French anti terrorist plan “Vigipirate Mission”, secure the area, near the site of a suspected bomb attack in central Lyon, Friday May, 24, 2019. A small explosion Friday on a busy street in the French city of Lyon lightly injured several people, local officials said. (Sebastien Erome/Associated Press)LYON, France — A “low force” blast hit a busy pedestrian street Friday in the French city of Lyon, injuring seven people as it shattered the glass from a refrigerated shop cooler in a bakery, a local official said. France’s anti-terrorist office opened an inquiry into the blast and the anti-terrorism prosecutor, Remy Heitz, went to Lyon. “But the fridge itself wasn’t that damaged, which means the device had low force,” Broliquier said, downplaying the incident.
