PARIS - "It felt like they were out to kill us. We knew there were weapons in the suburbs, but never turned against us like that," one of the police officers shot during youth riots near Paris told AFP Wednesday.
Sent to the suburb of Villiers le Bel to quell an outbreak of violence that followed the death of two teens in a crash with police, Francois, who asked not to be fully identified, found himself under siege.
"We were attacked from all sides" by youths armed with hunting rifles."
"The kids were shooting at us at close range, loading and reloading their weapons. I've never seen anything like it. It was like in a movie. They were picking us off from 10 or 15 metres away."
"I was hit in the hand with what I thought was a slingshot. I didn't realise right away that it was buckshot, until I saw the hole in my trousers. I tried to protect my younger colleagues, then I fell to the ground."
Police unions say the scale and intensity of the violence unleashed since Sunday is worse than the 2005 riots, also sparked by the deaths of two youths.
A line was crossed, they say, when suburb gangs turned guns on the police, 120 of whom were injured, several by gunwound. The hunting rifles used by the gangs are dangerous anywhere within a 300-metre (yard) range.

Would those be the non-Christian, non-Atheist, non-Buddhist, non-Hindu, non-Sikh, non-European born “youths?”
Watch the MSM, your local paper, all the news outlets you can find. See how many of them inform you of the fact that the rioters are muslim.
the FILTHY MUSLIMS are revolting (in more ways than one)
The Police should quit whining and start shooting back...wipe out these Moham YOUTS!
“youths armed with hunting rifles”
Ha ha. that’s how our news should portray the Bloods and Crips: “Youths with hunting rifles.”
Paris hasn’t a clue. At least this cop has had an awakening experience he could walk away from.
Hey, they’re just troubled yoots! I know they are shooting at you, but the liberal thing to do is to love them and try to understand them. If shooting you is their solution, we need to understand that and be with them in their troubles. Don’t be too hard on them. As their mothers can tell you, they are good boys and they wouldn’t do something like that. You must be mistaken that they are trying to kill you. It must be your fault.
I’m not absolutely certain, but I think they’re also Non-Jewish, Non-Animist, and Non-Shinto as well.
As in get them,and their parents,siblings,aunts,uncles,"imams" out of the country.
If they are going to bite, Muzzl’em!
"Dangerous," ya think? If it's a hunting rifle like some of mine, it's a little bit past dangerous; it's freakin' deadly. Guarantied.
The peasants are revolting...
Not for long, Nico is back in town.
Methinks this is part of the ongoing “harden the **** up process” that the French are finally ready to accept. Sooner or later, they’ll have to take out the muzzies. Better now than later.
Ban guns, that will stop ‘em! /sarc, of course
Seriously, this is an armed uprising. Time to send in the military, such as it is...
You hit that SO on the head.
The only thing I would add is “you are violating their rights” by trying to defend life and property from these “misunderstood” yoots.
God Bless these officers and the innocents caught up in the mix.
"Wipe them out. Wipe them all out."
My thoughts exactly: it is obvious that the Scientologists are behind this mayhem. ;-)
Ever seen the opening scene of a movie called “Papillon” (1973) about France’s penal colony French Guyana? During the 1920’s France deported emass their criminals and undesirables. The movie opens with the scene of thousands of French criminals and undesirables in chain marching down the street of Marseille escorted by troops with rifles and bayonets to be boarded on ships heading for Devil’s Island in French Guyana. France needs to brush off the dust on their historical police records to see how that was done.
They are from “The Religion of Peace”..
