AUBERVILLIERS, France - Widespread riots across
impoverished areas of France took a malevolent turn in a ninth night of
violence, with youths torching an ambulance and stoning medical workers
coming to the aid of a sick person. Authorities arrested more than 250
people, an unprecedented sweep since the beginning of the unrest. Bands
of youths also burned a nursery school, warehouses and nearly 900 cars
overnight as the violence spread from the restive Paris suburbs to towns
around France. The U.S. warned Americans against taking trains to the airport
through the affected areas.
