\n A French bus driver has died five days after being viciously beaten during a dispute over wearing face masks, his family announced Friday.<\/p>\n

Philippe Monguillot, 58, was initially left brain dead after he confronted a group of passengers who were not complying with a rule that requires face masks on public transportation when they boarded without tickets around 7 p.m. Sunday in Bayonne in\u00a0south-west France.<\/p>\n

The passengers dragged him off the bus and onto the platform, where he was kicked and beaten by the group before they fled.<\/p>\n

Monguillot\u2019s family and care providers decided it was best to take him off life support.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe decided to let him go,\u201d Monguillot\u2019s daughter Marie told AFP news<\/a> agency Friday, adding doctors had agreed with the decision.<\/p>\n

Five male suspects face charges in the attack, though their names have not been released.<\/p>\n

Two men, ages 22 and 23, have been charged with attempted murder, two others with non-assistance to a person in danger and another with attempting to hide a suspect, the BBC reported.<\/p>\n

The group attacked Monguillot after he asked three of the men to put on face masks. France has instituted a nationwide face-covering mandated for public transit.<\/p>\n

The mayor of Bayonne condemned the \u201cbarbaric act,\u201d which sparked a massive protest in the city where thousands marched for the driver, according to the BBC.<\/p>\n

Regional bus service was severely disrupted after the beating when drivers refused to work.<\/p>\n

As Monguillot clung to life, his wife, Veronique, said the couple\u2019s lives have been \u201cdestroyed\u201d by the tragedy.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe can\u2019t leave us like this, he was going to be 59 years old soon,\u201d she told Le Parisien. \u201cNo, you don\u2019t do this over a bus ticket. You don\u2019t kill for free like this.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
