Raid in Grenoble after gang killing

A night raid in Grenoble saw 18 people  taken into custody for questioning after the massacre of  two young students. The boys age 21 were walking through a Park when they were attacked by a gang of youths wielding pick axes, baseball bats and knives. One of the boys killed had 30 stab wounds on his body. President Hollande has been to the area and promised help for the residents who feel they are living in a war zone. High levels of unemployment mean gangs of young people loitering and causing trouble.
