		</div><p>Newly re-elected French President Emmanuel Macron narrowly avoided being pelted by what looked like a small sackful of cherry tomatoes as he waded through a boisterous and packed crowd in a market north-west of Paris.</p>
<p>About six of the small fruits, some orange, some red, contained in what looked like a blue plastic bag, flew over the head of the French leader and bounced off the shoulder and arm of two men beside him, according to broadcaster BFM-TV’s video.</p>
<p>Mr Macron himself seemed oblivious of the near-miss until someone in the crowd shouted “projectile” and bodyguards raised arms over the president’s head to cover him.</p>
<p>Someone then unfurled a black umbrella to shield Mr Macron, and his security detail steered him to cover under a nearby market stall parasol.</p>
<p><!--Ads1--></p>
<p>The president sheltered there for a few moments until things calmed down.</p>
<p>Mr Macron, ostensibly unharmed and unperturbed, then happily continued his walkabout in Cergy-Pontoise, mingling and talking to people at the market.</p>
<p>He told reporters he visited the working-class neighbourhood as part of his previously stated pledge to unite France after the bruising presidential campaign.</p>
<p>The 44-year-old comfortably beat far-right rival Marine Le Pen in the election run-off on Sunday.</p>

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Looks like the French people are extremely unhappy with the recent election results. Check out Macron nearly getting hit with a tomato here. What are your thoughts, was the French Election as free and fair as the 2020 election was here?<a href="https://t.co/cEtyuBjR74">pic.twitter.com/cEtyuBjR74</a></p>
