French towns impose curfews to counter youth violence

The southern French cities of Nice and Béziers are imposing night-time curfews for children under 13 amid rising public concern over youth violence, which has become a national political issue.

There have been a series of recent assaults involving minors. Two teenagers were charged with beating a 22-year-old man to death last week in Grande-Synthe, a suburb of the northern city of Dunkirk. Three weeks ago a 15-year-old boy died after being attacked by youths on his way home from school in Viry-Châtillon, a Paris suburb.

It’s a mystery who deez yutes is.
