This is the best summary I could come up with:


In the 13th arrondissement of Marseille, one of the quartiers nord (northern neighbourhoods) of the city, a professor walks toward the high school where she runs a geography programme.

In early September, a 24-year old student was studying for an exam in her bedroom when a stray bullet killed her.

He was talking with Amine Kessaci, the head of the non-profit Conscience, an organisation that supports young people in the quartiers nord and around France.

“I remembered that there was a case ten years ago in Réunion (a French island in the Indian Ocean) where the French state didn’t do much to prevent shark attacks, and there was a lawsuit in a special proceeding called référé liberté, which is a type of proceeding that requires two conditions,” Croizet said.

Hassen Hammou, the founder of the association Trop Jeune Pour Mourir (Too Young to Die)—a group working to end violence and build solutions for the quartiers nord in Marseille – says that the group never heard back from state serviceswhen it reached out for additional resources and support.

But Marlière outlines the primary causes—although multifaceted and varied—as being economic, social and political, and argues that this population is largely ignored by politicians.
