Invisible Youths Riot in Paris
What? You didn’t hear about the hundreds of “youths” rioting in a Paris suburb yesterday?
The new mainstream media approach to these incidents seems to be to ignore them entirely: Seven police hurt in riots by youths near Paris.
VERSAILLES, France, Oct 2, 2006 (AFP) -� Seven French police officers were hurt during clashes with scores of youths that broke out after a car chase in Les Mureaux, in the western Paris outskirts, justice officials said Monday.
The incident late Sunday followed the arrest of man who drove his car into a police vehicle after being chased for a traffic offence. As the man was being taken to the police station in another vehicle, it was set upon by a crowd.
“There were around 250 people — very angry and very hostile,” police officials said. The prosecutor’s office said the number was around 130.
Some of the police were hurt when a stone hurled into their car detonated a tear-gas grenade. One of the police cars was gutted by fire. There were no arrests.
