"Yellow vests" protesters attack police car in Paris

  • 5 years ago
Protesters were filmed on Saturday attacking a police car in central Paris as the so-called "yellow vests" protests turned violent.

The clip shows protesters smashing the windows and doing other damage to the vehicle which was parked outside the police station on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, close to the Champs-Elysées.

Footage filmed by the same person also showed a large fire which was lit by the protesters and police using tear gas to disperse the crowds.

Thousands of people have been taking to the streets in protest at fuel costs and the high cost of living.
