A video shows a woman in Paris desperately pleading with rioters not to loot a supermarket during violent protests spreading across France, as they ignore her and steal goods. The woman stood at the store's damaged entrance, shouting "this is not the purpose" while masked looters pushed past her, emerging with bags of stolen food and toiletries as crowds cheered. Over 1,200 people have been arrested amid protests over living costs and President Macron's government, with the historic Limoges town hall, built in 1883, burned down.
