France deploys 70,000 security personnel ahead of Halloween protests

France braced for a third weekend of protests on Halloween, with shops boarded up and about 70,000 security personnel deployed to prevent a repeat of the October 17 unrest. More than 40 Paris metro stations will close. The protests come as presidential elections near, with far-right leader Marine Le Pen leading polls; President Macron called the turmoil 'not normal'.
