We're pausing our coverage of the trouble that ignited in France last night after PSG's Champions League Success.

Earlier, we heard from Paris police chief Laurent Nuñez, who told a news conference that a core of looters and vandals were to blame for the violence, rather than PSG fans. He promised an increase in security for the victory parade later.

Paris Saint-Germain's players and staff are expected to be joined by around 100,000 fans when they hold a victory parade on the Champs-Élysées this afternoon.

Paris's iconic Champs-Élysées will be closed to traffic and surrounded by an increased security presence after a night of celebration saw violent scenes in Paris last night.

Today's celebrations begin at 17:00 local time (16:00 BST), but fans can assemble on the Champs-Élysées from 14:30 local time.

The parade is expected to last around 90 minutes (appropriately enough) and then the team will meet French President Macron at the Élysée palace.

A ticketed show is then planned at the Parc des Princes stadium from 20:30 local time, with the trophy presented to fans an hour later.

Paris police chief Laurent Nuñez announced during today's news conference that four shops were looted on Saturday night, including a shoe shop on the Champs Elysées.

This was during celebrations following Paris Saint-Germain's victory over Inter Milan in the final of the European Champions League.

He also confirmed that 491 people were arrested in the Paris region and nine police officers were injured. Nuñez said 192 demonstrators were injured, including four with serious injuries.

In Paris, one young man died during an collision with a vehicle and an investigation will take place to confirm whether or not it is linked to the celebrations.

"The toll is lower than what we have seen in the past, but we will never get used to this kind of abuse, with people who only came to commit acts of vandalism and who did not even watch the match, and we will always have a very firm response," concluded Nuñez.

"I am not minimising the incidents, which are serious, but they are the actions of several thousand people who are there to commit abuses and attack the police," concluded Nuñez.

Before ending the news update, Paris police chief Laurent Nuñez says authorities will respond to the "vandals and law breakers" involved with the incidents overnight.

Nuñez thanks people for their attendance and questions.

The news conference has now ended.

Nuñez has just given details about firefighters being attacked while responding to car fires.

He says the police tried to protect them as much as possible, and points to this as telling you everything you need to know about the type of people who were involved in the disturbances.

He praises the firefighters for being very courageous.

The Paris police chief says it's sad that a certain crowd of people gives the wider football community "a bad image".

Nuñez vows to "fight this" and to make sure that incidents like last night do not happen again.

Ahead of PSG's title parade in the capital later, Nuñez says the police presence and military presence will be increased on the ground.

Paris police chief Laurent Nuñez continues by saying whenever there are celebrations there is a certain crowd that just wants to fight with the police.

He says we must not just accept this behaviour whenever a French team wins.

Nuñez says he's waiting for more information from specific incidents and he doesn't want to minimise what happened. However, he says the truth is there are people there to fight the police who are trying to protect people.

He says this is just half-time for the police, as the PSG team will be celebrating their Champion League victory on the Champs Elysee later today.

About 192 members of the public and nine police officers were injured, the official says.

"We are very sad to announce that someone died," he tells the news conference, detailing that a young man died after a collision with a vehicle.

He says police are not sure if this specific incident was linked to the celebrations last night, but an investigation has been opened. He adds that all things point to the incident being linked to the celebrations last night.

We're now hearing about about the projectiles that were directed at police officers.

The spokesperson says there were fireworks thrown at officers.

He adds that we need to differentiate between "real PSG" fans who wanted to enjoy the celebrations and those who broke the law.

He goes on to thank police officers who helped to diffuse the situation.

The news conference starts with Paris police chief Laurent Nuñez saying several shops along the Champs Elysee avenue were "raided" last night.

He says these include a motor dealership, a barber's shop and a sports shoe shop - up to 30 people were arrested from inside that store.

We're expecting to hear from French police at a news conference scheduled to be held shortly.

Video footage from last night shows the moment police deployed water cannon and tear gas during clashes in Paris.

This short clip shows some of the disturbances:

Two people have died and hundreds have been arrested across France after Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) fans celebrated the club's victory in the Champions League final, according to the French interior ministry.

In the south-west town of Dax, a 17-year-old boy died after being stabbed in the chest late on Saturday evening, local media reported.

A 23-year-old man who was riding a scooter in central Paris was also killed after being hit by a vehicle, the prosecutor's office said.

Flares and fireworks were set off, bus shelters smashed and cars torched amid wild celebrations as PSG won the biggest prize in European club football for the first time in their history.

The French interior ministry said that 192 people were injured and 559 people arrested, including 491 in Paris.

Twenty-two police officers and seven firefighters were injured, the ministry said, adding that 264 vehicles were set on fire.
