The airport of Lyon (the third biggest city in France after Paris and Bordeaux) was closed for all traffic after a man drove his car onto the runway whilst being chased by police forces.
In the hereunder video, the white Mercedes car is seen careening across the dirt and onto the runway before the fugitive throws himself from the vehicle and starts running from police.
