Dozens of vans carrying riot officers were stationed on Tuesday night in Montfermeil, just 15 kilometres (10 miles) east of Paris and in the nearby suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois, the flashpoint of riots last year. A helicopter had the area under surveillance. While there were no immediate reports of a repeat of the violence of the night before, a firebomb was thrown inside a police vehicle, setting it ablaze late Tuesday. National police said nine officers suffered light injuries, mostly from projectiles, during the three hours of unrest in Montfermeil on Monday. The mayor's office said the trigger on this occasion was the arrest on Monday afternoon of a suspect in the beating of a bus driver earlier this month. But tension in Montfermeil remained high since the mayor last month banned teenagers from circulating in groups of more than three. He also ordered youths under 16 to be accompanied by an adult in public. A court later overturned the bans after protests from civil liberties groups. Youths also blamed stepped-up police patrols in Montfermeil for contributing to tensions. The first overnight clashes Monday and the palpable tensions again Tuesday were a stark reminder of the anger that smoulders in depressed French suburbs. Last fall, three weeks of far worse rioting in the suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois shocked the country and prompted the authorities to take seriously the problem of high youth unemployment and racial inequalities.
