  We investigate the properties of a sunspot light-bridge, focusing on the
changes produced by the impact of a plasma blob ejected from a C-class flare.
We observed a sunspot in active region NOAA 12544 using spectropolarimetric
raster maps of the four Fe I lines around 15655 \AA\ with the GREGOR Infrared
Spectrograph (GRIS), narrow-band intensity images sampling the Fe I 6173 \AA\
line with the GREGOR Fabry-P\'erot Interferometer (GFPI), and intensity broad
band images in G-band and Ca II H band with the High-resolution Fast Imager
(HiFI). All these instruments are located at the GREGOR telescope at the
Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife, Spain. The data cover the time before,
during, and after the flare event. The analysis is complemented with
Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) and Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI)
data from the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The physical parameters of the
atmosphere at differents heights were inferred using spectral-line inversion
techniques. We identify photospheric and chromospheric brightenings, heating
events, and changes in the Stokes profiles associated to the flare eruption and
the subsequent arrival of the plasma blob to the light bridge, after traveling
along an active region loop. The measurements suggest that these phenomena are
the result of reconnection events driven by the interaction of the plasma blob
with the magnetic field topology of the light bridge.
