Hero of the day seriously injured in France

A lieutenant colonel who volunteered himself hostage in exchange for another hostage, and then was shot, is the hero of the French nation.

During the hostage in Trèbes, two people were killed and several wounded. Earlier in the day someone died whose car was hijacked. The wounds are deep in France, but at the same time people feel proud: a member of the Gendarmerie, part of the army, voluntarily exchanged himself with a hostage, according to La Dépêche.

He was shot during the hostage and is now in a critical condition. Minister Gérard Collomb of Home Affairs praises the soldier in a speech. 'His heroism and courage deserve our respect. '
