The death of an 85-year-old man who reportedly succumbed to hypothermia after falling and spending nine hours sprawled and ignored on a bitterly cold street in central Paris has prompted grief, anger and incredulity in France and beyond.
René Robert, a Swiss photographer known for his shots of some of Spain’s most famous flamenco stars, died last week after slipping while on one of his nightly walks around the busy Paris neighbourhood where he lived.
According to his friend the journalist Michel Mompontet, Robert fell over on Rue de Turbigo, between the Place de la République and Les Halles.

Imagine falling on a public street and laying there, slowly freezing to death, and people walking around you like you are some curiosity to be looked at.
Gee,Wally, isn't that one of the places where everyone loves everyone and nothing like that could ever happen?
Should've imported more people.
