as soon as the final whistle blew, unrest spread rapidly. on the Champs-Élysées, a group of youths targeted a bus shelter, forcing police to intervene and disperse the crowd. near the Parc des Princes, officers came under fire from volleys of fireworks, prompting a swift response with tear gas and the first arrests. later that evening, a cluster of shared bicycles was set ablaze, fueling the escalation into full-blown clashes between protesters and law enforcement along the iconic avenue.

the périphérique became a battleground as dozens of motorcycles blocked traffic, some driving against the flow while pedestrians wandered between vehicles. the chaos turned deadly when a 24-year-old motorcyclist collided with a concrete barrier erected to halt the procession. by 4 a.m., a 17-year-old was found critically injured after being stabbed multiple times and remains in a coma.

57 officers injured in nationwide disturbances

on sunday morning, the minister of the interior reported 57 police officers and gendarmes injured across the country. “there was a significant surge in projectile throwing and firework attacks against security forces during interventions,” stated Laurent Nuñez. footage captured in the 8th arrondissement of Paris shows an individual firing volleys of fireworks in rapid succession.

violent incidents and looting were reported in nearly a dozen cities, including Grenoble. by the end of the night, authorities had made 780 arrests nationwide, with 457 individuals still in police custody.
