The clerks were on strike in the Nanterre courthouse, so the accused burglars, homeless thieves and domestic abusers had to wait. It was 5 p.m. by the time Yanis Linize was ushered into the courtroom, a few blocks from the traffic circle where young Nahel Merzouk was shot by a policeman just a week ago, setting off protests across the country. A bike courier from a southern suburb of Paris, Mr. Linize was swept up in the anger and emotion that erupted over the death, and the widespread perception that racial discrimination had played a role in it. He faced charges of issuing death threats to police and of promoting damage to public property. “I was angry because of everything that is happening,” Mr. Linize, 20, told the panel of three black-robed judges before him.

Paris/London CNN —Just weeks after hugely disruptive protests and strikes over pension reforms in France finally died down, businesses in the country are grappling with the fallout from a week of rioting. The riots, which were sparked by the fatal shooting of a teenager by a police officer last Tuesday, have already caused more than €1 billion ($1.1 billion) worth of damage, according to a French business association, MEDEF. Protesters have looted 200 stores and destroyed 300 bank branches and 250 smaller corner shops, a MEDEF spokesperson told CNN. French President Emmanuel Macron said Tuesday that he believed the “peak” of the violence had passed, according to CNN affiliate BFMTV.

CNN —Hundreds of people marched on Monday in support of a French mayor whose house was attacked by a burning car, as the country entered a second week gripped by violent protests and riots. A large crowd in L’Haÿ-les-Roses, a suburb of Paris, showed solidarity with Mayor Vincent Jeanbrun, whose house was rammed by the vehicle early on Sunday morning. The incident injured his wife and one of his children, Jeanbrun said earlier, calling it an assassination attempt. Jeanbrun told the crowd that "democracy was attacked." The wave of protests started after a police officer shot dead Nahel Merzouk, 17, during a traffic stop.

Merzouk’s death appears to have become a flashpoint for anger about racial inequality in France and claims of police discrimination. Yves Herman/ReutersLimited curfews have been imposed in two towns close to Paris at the center of some of the worst violence. Several buses were torched in the Paris suburb of Aubervilliers. The violence and protests erupted after police shot dead a teenager in a Paris suburb. The central areas of Paris, home to the Louvre Art Museum and the Eiffel Tower have been almost totally unaffected.
