“Cars torched over ‘calm’ French New Year”
Tue Jan 1, 2008 6:51am EST
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “PARIS (Reuters) - Vandals torched 372 cars as France celebrated the New Year, down on the figure last year after a night the police described as “relatively calm.”
Cars are burned fairly regularly in France and the image of vehicles in flames in poor suburbs became symbolic of riots in 2005 when angry youths set fire to thousands of cars.”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “At the height of the 2005 riots as many as 1,400 cars were attacked in overnight violence. In protests over President Nicolas Sarkozy election last May, demonstrators set fire to 730 vehicles.”
Thank you everyone for your prayer for my pastors son Nate
and Dusty Feet. Nate and some others got home today.
They hid others in the orphanage and church as they were
leaving. He said hopefully we saved some lives.
