Dramatic footage captures woman fighting off looters at Paris supermarket

"Arrêtez!" a woman shouts outside a damaged Paris supermarket. Stop. Standing amid shattered glass on Rue du Faubourg du Temple, she waves her arms at people pushing toward the entrance.

The footage, posted by True Crime Australia, drew roughly 230,000 views in its first day. A Short on the channel usually receives around 2,500 over the same period, making this a particularly sharp departure from its ordinary start.

The confrontation unfolds in less than a minute. The woman moves up to the broken doors and repeatedly tries to stop people entering. Someone pushes past her into the store. A masked man then grabs her and pulls her away from the doorway as she continues shouting.

Credited on screen to Frederic Munsch via Storyful, the clip ends with a view inside the supermarket: merchandise scattered across the floor and people ransacking shelves behind the broken entrance.
