The Paris police chief, Didier Lallement, announced that he would file a complaint after the discovery of “outrageous inscriptions” targeting police officers in the capital.
"Classic insults against the police" and "inscriptions on the license plates of police vehicles", according to a police source, were discovered Tuesday in the Beaugrenelle district, in the 15th arrondissement of Paris.
The registrations were aimed at the police from the “local” Anti-Crime Brigade (BAC), the prefecture said, adding on Twitter that an investigation has been opened.
The neighborhood CCTV images will be analyzed to try to find the authors of the graffiti.

On Saturday, tags calling for the murder or rape of police officers for remuneration were also found in the hall of a building in Savigny-le-Temple (Seine-et-Marne).
The authors of the tags in Savigny-le-Temple - probably drug dealers whose police presence obstructs traffic - have drawn up a "bonus table", inviting to "cut off the head of a police officer" or "rape a policewoman" for 500,000 euros or to throw them pétanque balls for 200 euros.
These tags were condemned Sunday by the Minister of the Interior Gerald Darmanin.
They had aroused the anger and indignation of all the police unions, from the representatives of the peacekeepers to the commissioners.
