Paris prosecutors investigate death during violence, awaiting autopsy results to determine cause.
Investigation into death opened
An investigation into the causes of death has been initiated by the Paris prosecutor's office following the death of a 59-year-old man during an incident of violence in Paris on Saturday.
Charges depend on autopsy
The prosecutor's office will only file a complaint for "voluntary violence resulting in death without intent to cause it" if the results of the autopsy support this legal conclusion.
Family seeks clarity
The family of the deceased is requesting the rapid release of the autopsy results to determine the exact causes of his death, as they feel there has been a lack of transparency regarding the circumstances of his passing.
Family appeals for witnesses
Through the man's lawyer, the family has expressed regret over the lack of information provided and is appealing to the public for any witnesses who may have information about the incident.
