PARIS (Reuters) - A far-left activist has been arrested in connection with the sabotage attack on France's high-speed rail network last Friday, Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Monday.

It is the first publicly announced arrest made since the sabotage attack, which took place on Friday hours before the Olympic Games opening ceremony got underway.
