Paris.- At least 157 people were arrested in the sixth consecutive night of riots in France, according to figures presented Monday by the Ministry of the Interior, which in any case show that there were much fewer incidents than the previous one.
The security forces did not report any particularly serious event, such as the one that had occurred on the night of Saturday to Sunday, when there was a particularly violent attack against the house of the mayor of the city of L’Haÿ les Roses, in the region from Paris.
Since this outbreak began due to the death last Tuesday by a police shot of a 17-year-old boy who tried to jump a control in the city of Nanterre, next to Paris, more than 3,000 people have been arrested and in 260 cases , according to the France Info radio station, should be tried in immediate appearance.
For example, in the Grenoble Court, which was operating on an exceptional basis this Sunday, some sentences to several months in jail have already been handed down for some of those arrested.
This noon, rallies are called throughout France in the country’s town halls in support of the mayors after the attack on the home of the mayor of L’Haÿ les Roses.
The French president, Emmanuel Macron, who has totally disrupted his agenda to dedicate himself entirely to the crisis opened by this social outbreak, plans to receive the presidents of the National Assembly and the Senate today.
The Prime Minister, Élisabeth Borne, for her part, has summoned the leaders of the main political parties.
