A fight between French rappers Booba and Kaaris forced Paris Orly Airport to temporarily shut down one of its departure halls on Wednesday, multiple local media reported.
Video clips posted on social media, which dpa could not immediately verify, showed a violent clash between a number of men in the duty-free zone as other passengers scrambled for shelter.Management company Paris Aeroport said that Orly West Hall 1 had been closed due to a "dispute between passengers," who had been "overpowered by police."
Broadcaster BFMTV quoted a source close to the police investigation as saying that 13 people, including the rappers, had been arrested.
The two rappers, who have been on bad terms for some time, were both heading to Barcelona for separate performances, BFMTV said.
