The hooded youths who are being referred to as "thugs" then chased the car, set it on fire, till it was forced to stop at the side street.
Local police linked the incident to "football celebrations" and arrested more than 20 people by 2 a.m.
Several others accused migrants of the incident, but their statements are baseless, since no official news outlet disclosed the suspects' identities.
A social media user wrote, "Paris used to be the symbol of culture and power, now it’s just another city lost to unchecked immigration."
Another added, "I am so glad I went 20+ years ago before it went to hell. I will never go there ever again. Almost as bad as London."
