PARIS (AP) ― The celebration to honor Paris Saint-Germain’s first French league title in 19 years was cut short Monday following fights between fans and riot police in which 30 people were injured.
Paris police commissioner Bernard Boucault said three police officers were among the injured from the clashes, a huge embarrassment to a club that has been trying to restore its image following years of fan violence.
Police made 21 arrests.
A total of 800 officers were deployed to contain the fans, Boucault said, but it took several hours to bring the situation under control after store and car windows were smashed near the Champs Elysees.
“The conclusion you can draw is that there won’t be any more events like this in a public place for Paris Saint-Germain,” Boucault said.
The website of sports daily L’Equipe mirrored the despondent mood, with a headline reading “Quand La Fete Tourne Au Fiasco” (When The Celebration Turns to Fiasco).
