Grandmother of killed teen driver affected by police tear gas during Paris protests
PARIS, FRANCE - JUNE 29: Footage shows the grandmother of a 17-year-old delivery driver, who was shot and killed by a police officer earlier this week during a traffic check in a Paris suburb.
The grandmother is seen among the protesters as she barely breathes due to tear gas fired by police to disperse the crowd.
Clashes between protesters and police continued in many cities including Paris, Bordeaux, Lyon, Roubaix, Marseille and Lille.
Nahel was shot dead by police on Tuesday in the Paris suburb of Nanterre after he broke traffic laws and failed to stop, according to prosecutors.
The prosecutors said Thursday that the officer who killed Nahel has been charged with voluntary homicide and placed in pre-trial detention.
Laurent-Franck Lienard, the lawyer for the police, told BFMTV that his client is “devastated” and asks for “forgiveness from the family.”
“He doesn't get up in the morning to kill people. He didn't want to kill," he added.
Thursday evening was marked by tensions and clashes in Ile-de-France as well as in Marseille, Lille and in several other cities across France. The Interior Ministry said on Twitter that 100 people were arrested during the protests.
Protesters tried to burn down the town hall in Clichy in the northwestern suburbs of Paris, according to video footage circulated on social media.
A curfew was imposed in Meudon for the night from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m, said the mayor of the municipality, which is located 9.1 kilometers (5.6 miles) from the center of Paris.
Jean-Didier Berger, the mayor of Clamart commune, located 8.7 kilometers (5.4 miles) from the center of Paris, also decided to impose a curfew from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. until Monday. (Footage by Mohamad Salaheldin Abdelg Alsayed/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
