France’s cost-of-living protests take a destructive turn as rioters torch a historic town hall, leaving much of the 143-year-old landmark in ruins.

In Limoges, flames engulf the building before its roof collapses. The local prefect calls the attack deliberate, while France’s interior minister blames radical far-left groups for violence breaking out during demonstrations nationwide.

President Emmanuel Macron is condemning the destruction and warning that those responsible for attacking public buildings and businesses will face prosecution.

The unrest is spreading well beyond one city. See where masked groups are attempting to storm government buildings: https://www.foxnews.com/world/limoges-town-hall-largely-lost-after-far-left-rioters-set-historic-building-fire-amid-french-unrest
