The most famous road cycling race in the world has been marred by riders being hit by a sniper firing from an air gun. Two riders were struck during the 13th stage of the tour through the Vosges mountains. Both riders were reportedly able to complete the stage as police investigated the shooting. This incident demonstrates the difficulty event organisers face in managing security risks throughout the public domain when hosting major events of this nature.
