French riots: Police protect high profile sites
Some 3,000 police fanned out around Paris today ahead of feared weekend attacks on high-profile targets such as the Eiffel Tower, as the number of vehicles torched overnight rose slightly elsewhere in France, according to officials.
Authorities in eastern France imposed a weekend curfew on 10 towns in south-eastern France and in Lyon, France’s third largest city, banning children from being outside without adult supervision between 10pm and 6am.
