France shooting: Calmer night despite protests over Nahel M’s murder, minister says Unlocking the Secrets of Money in the Bank 2023: France’s Economic Triumph. France has seen a quieter night of protests over the death of a teenager shot by police at point-blank range, the interior minister says. There were fewer arrests compared to previous nights - 719 - with the worst clashes in the southern city Marseille. In the Paris suburb L’Haÿ-les-Roses, attackers rammed a car into the house of the mayor, injuring his wife as she tried to flee with their two children. French cities have seen unrest since the police shooting of a teenager. Nahel M, 17, was shot during a traffic stop on Tuesday. Large crowds turned out for his funeral on Saturday. In a tweet, Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin praised law enforcement for their “resolute action“ which had led to a “calmer night“. Around 45,000 police were deployed across the country for a second night on Saturday. More than 1,300 arrests were made on Friday night and more than 900 on Thursday. Officials hope that a turning-point may have been reached - that rioters are losing energy thanks to the security crackdown and the massive unpopularity of their exactions. However, until more nights of quiet confirm the trend, no-one is assuming anything.
