PSG Victory Celebrations Turn Deadly in France

Celebrations in France following Paris Saint-Germain's 5-0 Champions League win over Inter Milan led to two deaths, nearly 200 injuries, and more than 500 arrests. In Paris, 491 people were arrested as police clashed with crowds on the Champs-Élysées, using tear gas and water cannons. Two fatalities occurred: a man was fatally struck by a car in Paris, and a 17-year-old was stabbed in Dax, although the latter's connection to the match is unclear. Authorities reported substantial property damage, including 692 fires and over 200 vehicles burned, with injuries among both civilians and security forces. Despite these incidents, most fans celebrated peacefully, and the Eiffel Tower was illuminated in PSG colors. A victory parade on the Champs-Élysées was scheduled for the following day.
