French police protest interior minister's comments on police violence

Description

Several dozen police cars, decked with flags and their horns honking, drive down the Champs-Elysées in Paris on their way to the interior ministry to protest recent comments by the government on police violence. The protest came at the behest of the police trade union Alliance in response to comments by interior minister Christophe Castaner, who recently acknowledged that too many officers "have failed in their Republican duty", with several instances of racist and discriminatory remarks revealed.
