Unrest continued in France for a second night as security forces deployed in their thousands to quell protests over the killing of a 17-year-old by police, which French President Emmanuel Macron described as “inexcusable” while also pleading for calm as justice took its course. Anger over the killing spawned protests in multiple towns around Paris on Tuesday and Wednesday nights, with Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin announcing that 150 arrests had been made across the country and that town halls, schools and police stations were set on fire or attacked.
