Foucher had spent a night as a hostage at Sony's "videotape" plant in Pontonx-sur-l'Adour, southwest France, before being released this morning. Over a dozen laid off factory workers held him captive, barricading the building's entrances with tree trunks. Foucher was originally there to officially close the factory and send-off over 300 workers. Luckily, everything ended peacefully without having to call in the ISA.
