Protesters set cars and public buildings ablaze in Paris suburbs and unrest spread to some other French cities and towns. Based on an initial investigation, Prache said, he concluded that “the conditions for the legal use of the weapon were not met.” Nahel’s surname has not been released by authorities or by his family. In earlier statements, lawyers for the family spelled the name Nael.
Macron also said it was time for “remembrance and respect” as Nahel’s mother called for a silent march Thursday in his honor on the square where he was killed.
