The “The world in images” section returns, Sunday June 2, to seven days of news across the planet.
In Michigan, United States, a virtual hearing by videoconference. The court judge called Corey Harris, who answered from behind the wheel of his car. The judge is confused, because the motorist was appearing at the time for driving without a license. The judge tried to solve the mystery. “Maybe I don’t understand everything. He has a suspended license and he drives”, quips the judge. At this point, Corey Harris must have regretted picking up the video call. Verdict: the motorist was sentenced to prison.
At Roland Garros, Frenchman Arthur Rinderknech got annoyed and kicked a billboard. Injuring himself, he was forced to retire. In Beijing, window cleaners were surprised by strong gusts at a height of 160 meters. Armed with his wheelbarrow, Frenchman Lionel Epaillard covered 215 km on foot from Angoisse (Dordogne) to La Joie (Charente-Maritime).
