there is lots of coverage of the riots and pictures of burning buildings, but very little to describe the incident itself. Looking through international media, I come up with the following

Kid was driving illegally, he was 17 and minimum age for driving in France is 18
kid was being pursed by police for a lengthy chase
kid piled car up on a barricade allowing police to close in
kid did not comply with instructions to shut down car engine
kid approximately 1-2 seconds before shot, stepped on accelerator, car lurches

cop said gun was aimed at kids leg before car lurched forward

The overall breakdown of respect for the law is what killed the kid. The rioters are doing what they do best, breaking the law

...Hmmm something smells here.

Driving recklessly with no regard for anyone else with a 1-2 ton vehicle...seems like grounds for dismissal of life if you try to take off again.

He was driving an AMG Mercedes Benz

Probably a spoiled rich kid who thought he did not have to answer to anybody when cops told him to stop and pull over

Inviting these people into your country seems to have terrible results.

I have not looked at videos yet, but in the one photo I saw the cops were right against the car with one cop a little more forward than the other. Stepping on accelerator was intentional assault against the cops

Do they have a provisional or probationary period for younger ages to drive?

Saying you are scared as an excuse to accelerate a vehicle at officers is not a valid answer.

If you hit someone with a vehicle you can kill them. I’m not sure what is hard to get with this

How did they know he was 17 and not 18 when they started pursuing him? Had they already stopped him and then he tried to flee?

Stopped reading there. If your stupid enough to run from police and leading a high speed chase, then your deserving of whatever consequences come of it. That is the height of stupidity.

There's a video on Twitter of the shooting. I didn't even know what it was when I originally saw it as all the comments are in French and I don't Habla no damn Frog.

Motocycle cop is leaning over the hood with his pistol stuck right up to the windshield. Driver nails the gas and he pops off a single round right through the glass and into the driver.

You forget the 17 year old had a rap sheet 10 pages long already.

I’m surprised they shot and killed him instead of beating him with a baguette

Although, all those immigrants have ruined France
