Protests and 'violence' as bad-tempered French presidential race nears finale

The final day of campaigning in France's presidential election has featured protests and a candidate accusing the other's supporters of "violence" as the bad-tempered contest reaches its finale.

Far-right candidate Marine Le Pen used Twitter to accuse the supporters of her rival, centrist Emmanuel Macron, of disrespecting a sacred place after hostile protesters disrupted her surprise visit to Reims cathedral.
