Abstract

(Bloomberg) -- Street unrest eased in France overnight after nearly a week of riots and looting touched off by a police officer's killing of a teenager that underscored serious tensions in the country's ethnically mixed suburban neighborhoods. Stephane Hardouin, a public prosecutor, said authorities were investigating "attempted murder" after the mayor's partner and two young children escaped the house through a back door. The unrest is another political minefield for Macron after he pushed through an increase in France's retirement age that was preceded by months of strikes and protests. [Extracted from the article]
