The French government on Saturday denounced "unacceptable violence" at a protest led by the hard left against police brutality, with officers trapped in their police vehicle after it was attacked, an AFP correspondent said.The nationwide protest came just under three months after the point-blank killing by a policeman of a youth outside Paris at a traffic check sparked over a week of rioting in Paris and elsewhere.Hundreds of people wearing black and in hoods broke away from the main march of several thousand people in ParisThey smashed the windows of a bank branch and threw objects at a police car stuck in traffic, an AFP reporter said. Paris police said that the police car was attacked with a crowbar and only the intervention of an anti-riot police unit allowed the release of the vehicle.A video later published by the BFMTV channel and shared on the internet showed a group of masked protesters running after the car, repeatedly kicking it, as one man smashes a window with a crowbar.An officer gets out and brandishes his service weapon, but does not fire it and gets back in the vehicle."We see where anti-police hatred leads," Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin wrote on X, formerly Twitter, denouncing "unacceptable violence" against the police.Paris police chief Laurent Nunez said three people had been arrested over the incident. Unions said some 80,000 people were expected to protest across France, responding to a call by the radical left including the hard-left France Unbowed (LFI) party but police put the number at 13,800.aco-tll-sjw/jj

It wasn’t the deadliest attack in Europe linked to the Islamic State group, but it was among the most disturbing: One evening in 2016, an assailant killed two police officers in their family home, in front of their 3-year-old son. The attacker, Larossi Abballa, was shot to death by police. According to court documents, he told police negotiators that he was responding to an IS leader’s call to "kill miscreants at home with their families."

Judge Peter Cahill hardly slept during the six weeks he presided over the murder trial of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for killing George Floyd. “When you’re in a high-profile trial, you feel the stress, you feel the pressure even if you’re not reading the papers,” he told an audience of judges last year at The National Judicial College in Reno, Nevada. Cahill’s experience provides a glimpse of the additional scrutiny and strain that await the four judges overseeing the criminal cases against former President Donald Trump.
STORY: Officials in Kosovo released images of heavily armed men who they say opened fire at police in the northern village of Banjska on Sunday.Police said one officer and three of the armed attackers died in the shootouts.Officials said the group of about 30 attackers also stormed a nearby Serbian Orthodox monastery, where monks and pilgrims were locked in as the siege raged on for hours.It was unclear who exactly was behind Sunday's violence, but Kosovo’s Prime Minister Albin Kurti blamed "Serbia-sponsored criminals.”The incident marked the first major regional violence since May in the north, a mostly ethnic Serbian region of Kosovo.Ethnic Albanians form the vast majority of the population of Kosovo, a former province of Serbia.The Serbs have never accepted Kosovo’s 2008 declaration of independence and still see Belgrade as their capital more than two decades after a Kosovo Albanian guerrilla uprising against repressive Serbian rule.Police on Sunday said the attackers first positioned heavy vehicles on a bridge into the village. They shot at police who approached them before heading to the nearby monastery.Journalists were barred from entering the village.Local media said Kosovo border police closed two crossings with Serbia.
