Was in Lille square for about 5 mins yesterday when my mate went to get a drink, he went to a bar down a quiet side street .....
... As he was on his way back the square he noticed he was being followed by about 10 or more people who he believed were Lille fans...
... 3 of the men started to get very close to him looking very aggressive because he had heard of the trouble the night before ...
... He decided to try and get away from the situation and ran into the crowd being chased by who he thought were Lille fans ...
.. When they shouted police he turned around and was tackled to the ground and dragged Into a shop by police were he was gassed twice...
.. That is when the riot started, the police are saying he was a known football hooligan and drug dealer who was spotted dealing drugs...
.Also stating it was him who started the trouble the night before, we didn't get to Lille until Thursday and he had no drugs on him at all..
