The man who slapped President Emmanuel Macron will spend the next four months in prison, and he has lost all of his civic rights for the next few years, French authorities say.

Damien Tarel, who is 28, apparently assaulted the president in a village known as Tain l’Hermitage — an incident he later described as “slightly impulsive.” 

Tarel said he had been “filled…with disgust,” when the president approached him to shake hands. 

“The slap would not have taken place if Macron had not gone directly to me,” the man said. “Otherwise I would have questioned him directly on political issues.” 

For his part, Macron described the assault as “foolish and violent.”

“We get used to a hatred on social networks which then normalizes, and when we meet face to face, we have the impression that it is the same thing, that is unacceptable,” he said. 

What else do we know about the incident?

It’s not everyday your house gets struck by lightning. It’s even more rare that your neighbor’s house gets struck at the same time. Earlier this week, that very thing happened multiplied by two. 

When a strong storm system moved through the state of North Carolina on Monday, reports of intense lightning were submitted all across the state. In one particular area, the lightning was so bad that a house was struck in a neighborhood, and then another was struck. 

Shortly after that, two more homes were struck by lightning in the same area. In total, four homes all within one mile of each other were all directly struck by lightning. What city in North Carolina did the bizarre quadruple strikes take place and what kind of damage did it cause?
