On Tuesday, French police arrested 11 people suspected of attacking a patrol in October of last year, BFM-TV reports.
The suspects, aged 17-19, were detained in an operation conducted in two areas of Viry-Chatillon, a Paris suburb, and neighboring Grigny.

On October 8 of last year, a group of 15 people attacked a police car with Molotov cocktails, injuring four policemen, two seriously.

The attack led to protests from police officers around France, who demanded expanded rights, additional police personnel, and more powerful equipment.
