Paris officials and authorities have grown increasingly concerned about safety around tourist sites as France prepares to host the 2024 Olympic Games.
The victims, who are sisters, met two young men hours before the assault and visited the famous site, walking along the Champ de Mars lawn between the Eiffel Tower and Paris military training grounds. One of the men forcibly grabbed the older sister’s buttocks, but she was able to escape from him. Peter Aitken is a Fox News Digital reporter with a focus on national and global news.
She found her sister pinned to the ground by the second man, forcing the second suspect to flee, French outlet BFM TV reported. The sisters were taken to a local police station, and the men remain at large.
