The Tour de France — biking’s most prestigious race — was quickly stopped on Tuesday after cyclists had been by accident tear-gassed. Police had been aiming at protesting farmers who had blocked the highway with hay bales in an effort to be seen by France’s Minister of Agriculture, in response to a police supply, and tear fuel inadvertently acquired into the eyes of some riders. There have been no accidents. (?: Jeff Pachoud/Marco Bertorello/AFP/Getty Photos)
