Police arrested 142 people during a demonstration in Paris on October 24, Actu.fr reported. Of those, 126 were placed in police custody under French procedure. Authorities have not said what charges, if any, will follow.
Readers travelling to Paris or with family there should know large demonstrations often bring central road closures and metro diversions. High arrest numbers also signal how heavily French police are policing city-centre protests.
Check Préfecture de Police announcements before travelling in central Paris, as protest-related closures are usually declared the same morning.
