France deployed 45,000 officers backed by light armoured vehicles, while crack police units and other security forces fanned out across the country to quell violence over the death of 17-year-old, killed during a traffic stop in a Paris suburb on Tuesday.
Despite the security presence, looting took place at night in the cities of Marseille, Lyon and Grenoble, with bands of often-hooded rioters pillaging shops. Protesters also set fire to cars and trash bins.
