Indian police intervene after brothers turn car into 'helicopter'

13 Sept 23:17 Key points summarised by AI

Two Indian brothers transformed a small Suzuki car into a 'helicopter' by adding rotor blades and a tail, investing nearly $3,000.
They intended to rent out the unique vehicle for weddings, charging 5,000 rupees ($60) daily, to earn extra income for their family.
Police seized the 'car copter' while it was being taken for painting, citing unauthorized modifications and non-adherence to road rules.
The brothers paid a fine of 2,000 rupees ($24) and had the car returned on the condition that they removed the mock helicopter tail.

President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
