VALDIVIENNE, France, Sept 25 (Reuters) - About 15 people were injured in clashes on Saturday between French police and activists protesting against genetically modified (GMO) crops, police and protest organisers said. Police fired tear gas grenades at the activists, who were trying to stage their protest in a field of transgenic corn near Valdivienne in central France.

Among the injured was a freelance photographer working for Reuters, Georges Bartoli, who received injuries to his legs from the grenades. He and the others injured in the clashes were taken to hospital and later released.

Leading Greens party politician Noel Mamere, who was among the group of about 400 protesters, said the activists had wanted to demonstrate peacefully. The police also numbered about 400.
