In France, unrest has again erupted in several Paris suburbs between youths and police. Hundreds of police officers fired tear gas and rubber bullets at crowds of teenagers Monday. French officials say more than seventy officers and an unknown number of young people have been left injured. The demonstrators took to the streets after two young North African immigrants died in a police crash. The officers are under investigation for involuntary manslaughter amidst allegations they failed to seek medical help for the young victims. The clashes come two years after a three-week youth uprising prompted by the deaths of two teens electrocuted as they hid from police.
