Police arrested the organizers on a number of charges after officers found money, illicit drugs and sound equipment. Five additional people were arrested on drug charges.
Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said on Twitter that more than 1,200 fines were issued for non-compliance with the coronavirus curfew.
