Eyewitness video captured the moment part of the roof of the 140-year-old city hall collapsed.
Reuters verified the location of the video from original file metadata and building structure that matched archive and satellite imagery of the area. The date matched Reuters reporting of a fire in Limoges city hall on October 17.
While hundreds of thousands across France protested peacefully in street marches in scores of cities, violent fringe groups targeted public buildings, looted luxury boutiques and supermarkets and attacked police vehicles and officers.
Interior Minister Laurent Nunez told reporters that about 400 people had been arrested after violent incidents, most of whom were adults.
President Emmanuel Macron vowed to prosecute and punish people who had performed such attacks.
