One of the attackers would have been recognised by witnesses, indicates the Telegram page of Salon Beige. He is said to be one of the founders of the ultra-left group Nantes Révoltée, son of a former elected representative from Nantes, who in 2017 deplored that his ultra-left colleagues who had attacked a bus with FN militants who were going to a meeting in Nantes did not burn it down completely. 

At the time his mother, then elected municipal, was ecstatic over his photos where he claimed the destruction of the banks. Since then this young bourgeois who has letters has written poems on cocaine.
