A month after the riots, downtown Montargis (Loiret) is still scarred. “We are still clearing away,” laments the mayor Les Républicains, Benoit Digeon. At the entrance to the city’s commercial artery, the epicenter of the degradations, there is an empty and fenced space. Only a few rubble remains, the last vestiges of the collapsed pharmacy after the arson of June 29, on the first evening of the riots.
