Unrest and rioting spread across France during a second night of protests over the fatal police shooting of a 17-year-old boy at a traffic stop. Protesters launched fireworks at police, set cars ablaze and torched public buildings in the suburbs around Paris and in towns across France. In Mons-en-Barœul in northern France, the town hall was set on fire and the mayor said parts of it had been “totally destroyed.” France’s president, Emmanuel Macron, held a crisis meeting to discuss the night of unrest, during which at least 150 people were arrested.
