The essentials

Lyon's tourist office was looted and set on fire during the protests of 17 October, according to reporting. A Hugo Boss shop in the city was also set on fire that day.
Reporting states that more than 200 shops in Lyon were damaged during the protests. 199 arrests have been recorded in the city in connection with the 17 October protests.
Each figure rests on a single report. An earlier report put the number of damaged shops at more than 150, so the total may be revised. The sources do not say how the damage was assessed or whether the 199 arrests include people later released without charge.
The available material does not describe the damage to the tourist office beyond the looting and fire, the value of the losses, or the charges brought against those arrested.
