In Clamart, a Paris suburb, a tramway was briefly set ablaze. Prosecutors are asking that the officer be placed in detention, and he will be presented on Thursday to investigative judges, who will hand down charges. Initial accounts, provided to the French news media by what were described as anonymous police sources, claimed that the driver had plowed into officers during the stop. Lawyers for the 17-year-old killed in the shooting have said they will file several complaints against the two officers involved in the traffic stop. The teenager’s family was also scheduled to lead a march in his memory in Nanterre in the afternoon.
