A fatal police shooting in Paris has prompted a political row before this weekend’s French parliamentary elections, as the left attacked Emmanuel Macron over what it said were dangerous policing methods.
Police opened fire on a car in the 18th arrondissement of Paris on Saturday morning, injuring the driver and shooting dead one of the passengers, a 21-year woman, Rayana. Officers said the car failed to stop when summoned by them, and then allegedly drove towards them at speed.
