PARIS RIOTS LIVE | Violence Explodes After PSG Champions League Win; Tear Gas Fired |Times Now World
Violent riots have exploded across Paris and other major French cities after Paris Saint-Germain’s (PSG) back-to-back UEFA Champions League triumph over Arsenal turned into chaotic clashes between fans and law enforcement. Following a tense 1-1 draw in Budapest, which saw PSG secure the European crown 4-3 on penalties, tens of thousands of supporters flooded the streets of Paris, including near the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Élysées, and the Parc des Princes stadium. However, the celebrations quickly deteriorated into widespread unrest as rioters clashed with police, pelting officers with fireworks, firecrackers, and glass bottles, leading to over 400 arrests nationwide. French authorities deployed 22,000 police officers—including 8,000 in Paris alone—who resorted to firing tear gas to disperse crowds setting fire to vehicles, bicycles, and trash bins, with reports of looting attempts and serious injuries, including one individual falling into the Seine and another wounded by cold steel.
