France’s struggle with drug-related violence is at a “tipping point” after a bloody shootout gravely wounded one teenager and left four more hurt, Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau said Friday. Police were called out around 10:45 pm (2145 GMT) on Thursday night in response to gunshots outside a restaurant in a working-class neighbourhood of western city Poitiers, a security source said.
