Not with the context provided litteraly the sentence before:

The shocking death came amid warnings of rising violence against France’s mayors, many of them from small rural villages. France has around 36,000 mayors. According to a recent poll, the number of verbal and physical attacks against them rose by 15 per cent last year after a record 32 per cent rise the previous year.

First of all these kind of statistics are useless, if the number of people struck by lightning went from 1 to 2 in the span of a year you could make the claim that 100% inCreAsE iN cAsUAlTiEs FroM LigHtNiNg StRikES. Also note how they included verbal abuse...

But thank god they're making an effort to pretect the powers that be while throwing the rest of us under the bus.
