Violence erupts at October 17 protests across France

Original: paris

Hundreds of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets across France on October 17, with interior minister Laurent Nuñez putting turnout at around 550,000. Protests in Paris, Lyon, Marseille and Limoges were marred by looting, vandalism and fires, including an incident at Limoges town hall. Roughly 400 people were arrested, and shopkeepers have begun describing the damage to their businesses.

Why now: Widespread violence and looting during a major national day of protest, with large arrest numbers, is dominating news coverage internationally.
