Young rioters became discordant with police and looted general stores on Friday as a young rioter was encountered in a street, which has created more pressure on President Macron, who advised guardians to look after their children, and he has blamed social media for this adverse situation. Rioters also burned down cars, raided banks, and erected barricades in other parts of the country. The largest library in Marseilles, Alcazar, was set on fire by an agitated mob.

The seventeen-year-old child, Nahel, had been shot dead on Tuesday morning when he was driving a yellow Mercedes in the Paris suburb of Nanterre. He was driving a yellow Mercedes when he was pulled over for a traffic violation.

The police officers informed him that he had been shot dead as he was driving his car at the police. The footage shows that two policemen were standing by the stationary car and told the mob to stop the car by pointing a gun. But Nahel tried to drive his car towards them, and for that, one police officer shot his gun at him.

The riot has been continuing for four nights, whether or not the protestors clashed with the police.

French President Emanuel Macron had told parents to become alert, keep their children in houses, and keep watch on them so that they would not play video games and become active on social media, as the governing authority does not want any more deaths of adolescents.

FRENCH FOOTBALL LEGEND MBAPPE PEACEFULLY PROTESTED AGAINST THE SHOOTING OF A TEENAGER:

Kylan Mbappe protested against the shooting of the teenager and added, “Like all French people, we were taken aback and shocked by the brutal death of young Nahel. First of all, our thoughts go out to him and his family, to whom we extend our sincere condolences.

Of course, we cannot remain insensitive to the circumstances in which this unacceptable death took place.

Since this tragic event, we have witnessed the expression of popular anger, whose substance we understand but whose form we cannot endorse. Many of us come from working-class neighbourhoods, and we share these feelings of pain and sadness. But to this suffering is added that of assisting the powerless in a real process of self-destruction. Violence solves nothing, even less when it inevitably and tirelessly turns against those who express it, their families, loved ones, and neighbours.

It is your property that you are destroying—your neighbourhoods, your council estates, your places of fulfilment and proximity.

In this context of extreme tension, we cannot remain silent, and our civic conscience should make us call for appeasement, awareness, and accountability. That of social actors—parents, older or younger brothers and sisters in our neighbourhoods—who must work to restore peace to our council estates. The “living together” that we hold dear is in danger, and it is our responsibility to preserve it.

There are other peaceful and constructive ways to express yourself. That is where we should focus our energy and our thoughts.

The time of violence must end to make way for that of mourning, dialogue, and reconstruction.”
