French Protestors Set Fire In Mayor’s House While His Family Slept, Wife-Child Injured

Vincent Jeanbrun, the mayor of a town in Paris, revealed on Sunday that protestors attacked his house on Saturday night. Through a tweet he shared that, in order to harm him and his family his house was attacked.

According to Mayor Vincent Jeanbrun, protestors “rammed a car” into his house before “setting fire” while his family slept.
Jeanbrun stated that “my wife and one of my children were injured,” adding that “it was an attempted murder of unspeakable cowardice.”

The incident happened on the fifth night of unrest in France, during which rioters destroyed property, damaged vehicles, and fought with security forces after a 17-year-old boy was shot dead when tried to flee a traffic stop.

To address the problem, the government of French President Macron has overnight sent out 45,000 police officers as well as armoured vehicles. Due to the continuous violence, the president also cancelled state visit to Germany that was scheduled to start on Sunday.
