They may have reasons to riot. I don't know a lot about what is going on, but this type of thing seems to happen as a result of someone doing something they shouldn't have been doing anyway. Would they have started rioting regardless of whether these two young men were electrocuted while they were hiding from the police in an electrical sub station - don't get me started on that being a "genius" place to hide in the first place? If so, that's a different conversation. Running/hiding from the police is illegal in this country - maybe it's not in France. I have no idea about what they were doing before they decided to hide from the police, I was commenting strictly on what the article says started it. Have you ever seen an instance where the police are looking for someone (for whatever reason) and running turned out well for them? Even I've seen a couple episodes of Cops
