Unrest continued in France and across France's overseas territories following the Tuesday shooting of a teenager by French police.
But violence and looting continued Friday, where protesters set fires and threw projectiles. Police fired tear gas, and repelled people attempting to enter locked businesses. In Marseille, in the south of the country, police say looters ransacked a gun shop. At least one person with a hunting rifle was subsequently arrested.
