New incidents erupted in Nantes on Friday night for the fourth night in a row, shortly after the indictment of the CRS that killed 22-year-old Aboubakar on Tuesday night during a police check.
Vehicles burned and Molotov badtails. Around 1 am on Saturday, seven vehicles were burned in Orvault, Rezé and in the neighborhoods of Nantes Breil and Bellevue. The police also wiped Molotov badtails at Breil and Bellevue and responded with tear gas grenades. The beginning of the fire hit a building of the Nantes Habitat social landlord in the Breil district
Tensions gradually subsided over the course of the night. The situation gradually returned to calm around 4 o'clock, at which time no arrest had taken place, according to the police.
Fourth Night of Violence. More than a hundred cars have been burned in recent days in Nantes, including the personal car of the mayor (PS) Johanna Rolland. Fires also affected many public buildings and businesses in these neighborhoods. "It is necessary that the disturbances which agitate the city since three days stop", had launched the public prosecutor Friday, "that they stop to respect the legitimate expectations of the family (of Aboubakar, note ) to know the exact circumstances surrounding the death of his son. "
Three men aged 20 to 31 years were sentenced Friday to four months in prison suspended for violence committed the day after the death of the young man, sentences clearly under below the requisitions of the public prosecutor.
A New Version of the Facts. Aboubakar, under an arrest warrant for "robbery, concealment and criminal conspiracy", was shot in the neck by the policeman on Tuesday around 20:30. He died in the hospital two hours later. On Friday, the police officer behind the shooting admitted to lying at his first free audition, during which he had mentioned the "dangerousness" of the young man. He now claims to have shot "by accident".
