The spectator, a 30-year-old French woman, is in custody at a police station in Landerneau, Brittany, the northwest French region where the Tour de France, the world\u2019s biggest cycling event, held its first four stages,\u201d the news agency <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/lifestyle\/sports\/spectator-who-caused-tour-de-france-crash-arrested-bfm-tv-2021-06-30\/\">reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The woman is accused of involuntarily causing injury and putting the lives of others at risk.<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday, the spectator had one foot on the roadway and was holding a sign that read \u201cAllezopi-Omi\u201d \u2014 which means \u201cgo.\u201d She was looking toward the camera when one rider ran into her sign, toppling off his bike. Other riders in the tightly packed group couldn\u2019t swerve and ran over him.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"5.3103448275862\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">look at this absolute nightmare that resulted <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3Nf2QFMqHu\">pic.twitter.com\/3Nf2QFMqHu<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Timothy Burke (@bubbaprog) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bubbaprog\/status\/1408790487553777678?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 26, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The woman faces serious consequences.&nbsp;\u201cThe roadside fan who caused a giant crash at the Tour de France on Saturday is to be sued by the organisers,\u201d France24 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.france24.com\/en\/live-news\/20210626-spectator-to-be-sued-after-tour-de-france-crash\">reported<\/a>. \u201cThe woman concerned held up a banner slightly into the road and was looking straight at the television motorbike cameras with her back turned on the speeding peloton. German rider Tony Martin brushed past her and was knocked off balance racing near the head of the peloton, and when he fell it caused a horrifying domino effect ending in a tangle of bikes and bodies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are suing this woman who behaved so badly,\u201d Tour deputy director Pierre-Yves Thouault told AFP. \u201cWe are doing this so that the tiny minority of people who do this.

But some were also careless,\u201d the AP reported. \u201cThe first big spill was caused by a fan who brandished a cardboard sign and leaned into the path of veteran rider Tony Martin, who fell off his bike and took many others down in his slipstream.
