Greenpeace "smoke bombs" French reactor

A Greenpeace paraglider dropped a smoke bomb onto the Bugey French nuclear reactor to highlight a potentially catastrophic lack of security around the power station, reports The Daily Mail. Two members of the environmental group were arrested following the stunt at the Bugey plant in southeastern France which came four days before France's presidential election runoff. To demonstrate the plant's vulnerability to terror attacks, the pilot threw a red-smoke flare onto the roof of the reactor building before landing nearby.
