A restaurant manager in France was charged with involuntary homicide on
Wednesday over a botulism outbreak that killed one person and sickened 15 others
who ate homemade sardine preserves at his organic wine bar.

The victims, most of them foreigners, became ill in early September after eating
at the Tchin Tchin Wine Bar, an establishment in central Bordeaux that attracted
scores of tourists who were in town for the Rugby World Cup.

French authorities blamed botulism — an extremely rare but potentially
life-threatening illness — and traced the outbreak to improperly prepared
oil-based sardine preserves that were served at the wine bar.
