Grenoble prosecutor Etienne Manteaux doesn’t believe the grenade was thrown with deadly intent.

He said: “This is not a device intended to kill, given that there was no significant explosive charge and no projectile metal.”

Wait, so it wasn't a grenade?

From the video it looks to me like a flashbang, MK5/MK7 or a firework. The shop windows stay intact, and there’s no evidence of any penetration of projectiles after the blast.

Could also be a crow scare packaged in a fake grenade shell, like the kind of thing paintballers/airsofters would use.

Still really fucked up but nowhere near as bad as a grenade attack.
