A fundraiser for a French police officer<\/a> who shot and killed a 17-year-old has topped more than $1 million as protests continue to rage nationwide.<\/p>\n

The GoFundMe for the officer had raised more than $1.4 million by Monday evening. The page was organized by Jean Messiha, a one-time adviser to French far-right politician Marine Le Pen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She wrote that the page was for the officer, “who has done his job and is now paying a high price.”<\/p>\n

The family of the teen killed, Nahel Merzouk, has also started a similar fundraiser, which has not garnered as much in donations, just $220,000 by Monday morning, The Independent reported.\u00a0<\/p>\n

ARRESTS PLUMMET IN 6TH NIGHT OF FRANCE RIOTS AS INTERIOR MINISTER BLASTS PARENTS FOR LETTING KIDS PROTEST<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“It\u2019s insulting to Merzouk’s family,” French lawyer Carole-Olivia Monteno told reporters. “It only increases hate where there\u2019s too much of it already. It\u2019s completely inappropriate and politically it does nothing.”<\/p>\n

The officer involved in the killing has been charged with murder and is being held in jail without bail.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Merzouk was working as a delivery driver when he was shot and killed during a traffic stop last week. The death ignited massive protests and riots throughout France.\u00a0<\/p>\n

France\u2019s Ministry of Interior<\/a> said there were 5,662 vehicle fires and more than 1,000 damaged buildings.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In addition, police have made more than 3,300 arrests, many in Paris alone. The average age of those arrested is 17.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, there have been at least 254 attacks on law enforcement premises with more than 720 personnel injured, the report said. More than 1,000 buildings have been burned or damaged during the unrest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

French President Emmanuel Macron<\/a> has called on parents of teenagers involved in the violence to take responsibility for their children’s actions during the riots.\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Merzouk\u2019s grandmother, identified only as Nadia, urged protesters to remain calm.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m telling them to stop,” she told reporters. “Don\u2019t destroy the schools, don\u2019t destroy the buses. We want things to calm down.”<\/p>\n
