PARIS (Reuters) - A teenager who slapped former French prime minister Manuel Valls during an election campaign trip to Brittany was handed a three-month suspended sentence and was ordered to carry out 105 hours of community service, a prosecutor said on Wednesday.
Valls, 54, was walking past a group of people in the town of Lamballe on Tuesday after coming out of the municipal office. He appeared to first shake hands with the young man before the latter shouted: "This is Brittany!" and reached out, gently slapping the ex-premier.
