A jogger appeared to be unfazed by rioting in Paris as they ran directly through the chaos unfolding on Saturday, 17 October.
Hundreds of people were arrested and buildings set on fire across the country over the weekend as protests over the cost of living crisis spread. Around 800,000 people are estimated to have taken to the streets to demand urgent reforms.
At least 2,000 people have been arrested.
French president Emmanuel Macron has vowed that the French government will “make examples if need be” of the rioters, warning for “those who want to spark violence and create unrest in our country, we will not yield.”
