Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said police faced 'an extremely elevated level of violence' from black-clad gangs trailing some 410,000 marchers. Officers tackled 75 fires on Saturday, and 24 shops were looted. Weapons seized from demonstrators included steel balls, slingshots, fireworks and a katana. It was the second weekend of unrest, and a week earlier some 3,000 businesses were damaged or looted.
