# Prosecutors in France have launched an investigation into attempted murder after petrol bombs were thrown at police during the weekend’s demonstrations in Paris. One official suffered burns to his ankle and injuries to his hand, while 14 others sustained wounds ranging from minor to serious. Clashes erupted in Paris and in other cities on Saturday during a third weekend of student-led protests against soaring living costs. Over 770 people were arrested. Interior minister Laurent Nunez says throwing petrol bombs at a police line was unacceptable.
