"Yellow Vests" take to the streets of Paris on 4th Saturday of protests

Anti-government protesters faced off with French riot police in Paris on Saturday, hurling projectiles, torching cars and vandalizing shops and restaurants in a fourth weekend of unrest that has shaken President Emmanuel Macron's authority.

 

Named after the fluorescent safety vests that French motorists must carry, the "yellow vest" protests erupted on Nov. 17, when nearly 300,000 demonstrators nationwide took to the streets to denounce high living costs and Macron's liberal economic reforms.

 

Demonstrators say the reforms favor the wealthy and do nothing to help the poor and billed Saturday's demonstrations "Act IV" of their protest after three consecutive Saturdays of rioting.
