French police have evicted more than 400 young migrants that had been occupying La Gat Lyrique theatre, in the centre of Paris. Shortly before 6am on Tuesday morning, police officers went through activists and charged the migrants, using batons and tear gas to disperse the occupiers. Police also arrested 46 people, most of them migrants. Their legal status will be reviewed and they could face deportation, Paris chief police Laurent Nuez said on BFMTV. The eviction came a month after an order from a local administrative court, which claimed that the occupation created major security and health risks for the young migrants. Nuez, who instructed the evacuation, said the occupation was a "threat to public order." "At this stage, it was the right thing to do because the situation was very complex, very tense and very dangerous inside the building", Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo reacted on France Inter after the event.
