The Music Festival in France ended with arrests, assaults, and multiple injuries

The 2025 edition of the Music Festival in France, held last weekend throughout the country and centered in Paris, ended with a finale marked by violence, chaos, and a series of incidents that put national authorities on alert, in addition to the arrest of numerous illegal immigrant criminals.

According to official data from the French Ministry of the Interior, during the Fête de la Musique celebrations, which brought together millions of people, with crowds described as "unprecedented" in the capital, at least 145 cases of women suffering attacks by syringe pricks were reported.

These attacks, known as "needle spiking," consist of the injection of unknown substances, allegedly drugs such as Rohypnol or GHB, which can cause disorientation, loss of consciousness, and increase the victims' vulnerability to assaults.

French police arrested 12 people in connection with these attacks. In Paris, police chief Laurent Nuñez confirmed the existence of at least 13 cases in the city, where three victims, including a 15-year-old girl and an 18-year-old young man, reported feeling unwell after being injected. Investigations are ongoing, with toxicological tests underway to determine the substances involved.

However, the problems were not limited to these attacks. Across the country, police made 371 arrests during Saturday night, with nearly 90 arrests in Paris. The violent day also left a concerning toll of 51 vehicles set on fire, more than 1,500 people injured (14 in serious condition), and six stabbings reported.

Local authorities are also investigating the possible connection between these violent acts and groups of young people, mostly illegal immigrants, who participated in the riots that marred one of France's most important cultural celebrations.

Thus, after several years of uncontrolled illegal immigration, the "Fête de la Musique," which traditionally celebrates musical diversity and peaceful coexistence in the streets, has gradually become a high-risk event in neighborhoods where African illegal immigrants and Arabs outnumber French residents.
