Riots have broken out in Paris after a teenage driver was shot dead by police in the suburb of Nanterre.
The incident was videoed on Tuesday after the youth – who has been named as Naël M – allegedly broke traffic rules.
Anger erupted across the French capital, with violent demonstrations leading to 24 arrests by this morning already.
Naël’s devastated mother, who asked not to be named, said: ‘I lost a 17-year-old, I was alone with him, and they took my baby away from me.
‘He was still a child, he needed his mother.’
The police officer who killed the boy has been detained on homicide charges as an investigation is carried out.
