@abcnewsaus: About 2,400 people were arrested in France over the weekend as protests over cost of living and declining public services turned violent. Hundreds of shops were looted in Paris and other cities, and losses are estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of euros. President Emmanuel Macron addressed the nation, saying there must be a distinction between protesters with legitimate demands and looters.
