Smoke billowed across a highway in Paris, France, on June 2 as protesters blocked traffic and police fired tear gas to disperse crowds, local reports said.

This footage shows protesters blocking the Boulevard Périphérique ring road as a fire burns and police move in and fire canisters.

Thousands of protesters, many inspired by protests over George Floyd in the US, rallied in the city to protest the death of Adama Traore – a black man from Paris who died after an arrest in 2016, according to news reports. Credit: HORS-ZONE Press/Nicolas Mercier via Storyful
