Caution as Olympic Games begin (Marseille, Nice)
July 24, 2024, 9:26 p.m.
1. Safety measures when crowds occur Generally, in places where many people gather, there is a risk of accidents such as stampedes occurring, and there is also a tendency for crimes such as pickpocketing and snatching to increase. Please be careful.
● To prevent pickpocketing, carry your belongings (backpack, handbag, etc.) in front of you.
● Generally, be aware that places where large numbers of people gather are likely to be targets of terrorist attacks, so pay close attention to your surroundings and try to limit your time there as much as possible. If you notice any suspicious people or situations, leave the area immediately.
● If you hear an explosion or the sound of gunfire, immediately lie down, protect your head, hide in the shadow of a sturdy object, and quickly leave the scene in a low position.
● In order to prevent secondary damage such as injuries, try to remain calm even if those around you are panicking.
2. General Crime Prevention There have been many reports of pickpocketing and baggage snatching in the south of France, especially in the Côte d'Azur region, including Nice. During your stay here, please take care to prevent becoming a victim of crime by paying close attention to your luggage, etc., and if a stranger approaches or speaks to you, please ignore them and leave the area.
[Reference: Recent cases of theft involving Japanese nationals reported to the Embassy]
●While walking through the airport with luggage on a cart, my companion was approached by a stranger, and while he warned the stranger "Be careful, he's a pickpocket," the luggage on his cart was stolen. (Cases of luggage being stolen on arrival at the airport are common, especially in Nice.)
- I was pushed around in a crowded tram. I later realized that my passport, which I had in my bag pocket, was gone. (This happened a lot in Nice.)
●I had left my suitcase in the luggage compartment on the train, out of sight from my seat, and before I knew it, it was gone.
●I fell asleep with my bag on the luggage rack on the train, and when I woke up it was gone.
●When I left my luggage in the rental car and left the car, the window was broken and my luggage stolen.
●When I checked out of the hotel, my bag which was at my feet was taken away.
●While eating at a restaurant, the bag I had placed next to me disappeared.
●When I returned to the hotel after going out, items that I had left in my room were gone.
