French authorities confirmed that 416 people were arrested following chaotic celebrations after the Champions League final. The arrests were linked to public disorder, vandalism, and clashes with police in cities including Paris and Marseille.
Police deployed heavy security, but large crowds led to violence, burning vehicles, and road blockages. Tear gas was used in some areas to restore order.
Officials condemned the unrest, stressing that while celebrations are allowed, destruction and attacks on officers will not be tolerated. Investigations are ongoing.
