At one point, Ayesha was seen wiping away tears while Sonia tried to explain the situation she was facing to officers.
“They won’t let us go back to where we came from,” Sonia said. “They won’t let the drivers come here, and they won’t let us go back.”

An officer told the group that French President Emmanuel Macron was probably due to pass through the area and that no one was allowed in.
“No one should cross the road now until he has passed,” Macron said, watching the gold medal match on Saturday night.
Greene then suggested one of the officers hit Ayesha’s child in the head.
“So after he hit the baby over the head there’s still nothing you guys can do to get them out of here?” Green asked, confused.
The officer appeared to apologise for the incident, but Sonia just wanted to get back to her car.
Security in Paris was extremely tight during the Olympics, with over 30,000 police officers stationed in and around the city to ensure the safety of Olympic spectators.
