14:25Now PlayingMartin Luther King once said, “…a riot is the language of the unheard." Ana Kasparian, Francis Maxwell, and Aida Rodriguez, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"A gang of masked rioters set more than a dozen vehicles ablaze in a car dealership as violence spread to more suburban Paris towns over the alleged rape of a young black man with a police baton, authorities said Wednesday.
Police made 17 arrests, according to the prefecture of the Saint-Seine-Denis region, a working class region northeast of Paris with a large minority population.
The violence, which has now spread to at least five towns, erupted after a 22-year-old man was allegedly sodomized with a police officer’s baton during an identity check last week. One officer was charged Sunday with aggravated rape and three others were charged with aggravated assault. Police deny the allegations.
Shock gripped France when a video, apparently showing the young man’s arrest, circulated on the internet. It showed him on the ground against a wall surrounded by four men, who appeared to be roughing him up.
In Aulnay-Sous-Bois, where the incident took place on Thursday, a gang of masked youth set fire to cars or bashed them in a private parking lot belonging to a Citroen dealership, damaging all 17.
Surveillance videos seen by The Associated Press show the men running through the outdoor parking lot dumping jerry cans of an inflammable substance on cars, which went up in flames. Some bashed the cars with instruments.”*
