TL;DR Summary

A gun shop in Marseille was looted during the fourth night of riots in France, with at least four hunting rifles stolen. The violence, sparked by the killing of a 17-year-old boy by a police officer, has spread to major cities including Paris. Lyon's mayor has called for police reinforcements after "unprecedented" riots and looting in the city. In a separate incident, four police officers were shot at and slightly injured in the Rhône region. Over 1,300 people have been arrested so far, the highest figure since the unrest began.
