More rioting in Paris....

The modern answer to any grievance - riot....

Thirty police officers have been injured in a second night of violence between youths and officers in the flashpoint suburb of Villiers-le-Bel in Paris.

About 160 riot police came under attack in the notoriously crime-ridden district, 20 miles north of the centre of the French capital. The violence spread from Villiers-le-Bel to several other areas, police said.

The violence was sparked on Sunday by the deaths of two young boys, who were killed when their moped collided with a police car.

The boys who died were said by locals to be "aged between 12 and 13".

Police insisted that their car had not been chasing the boys when the crash occurred soon after dusk.

French officials had earlier attempted to quell mounting anger by launching a manslaughter investigation into the deaths.
