Paris [France], July 14: A police investigation has been launched after a chopped finger was sent to the official residence of the French president, according to the Paris prosecutor's office.
The package delivered to the Elysee palace contained "a piece of a finger, a fingertip it seems," the prosecutor's office told CNN.
Police opened a case for a "threat of a crime or offense against an elected official" as of Monday, it also said.
