Reassuring the people

After the internet was disconnected, the whole country went into a state of panic. People had shut themselves up in their homes and waited in fear for something to happen. As Jocelyne had predicted, the absence of the Internet had put an end to most of the riots: with no media, the rioters had stopped regrouping and protesting. However, this situation was not destined to last long: many hotheads had started taking to the streets and throwing stones and homemade Molotov cocktails at the police. Such incidents enticed other people who saw the scene to do the same, and groups of individuals quickly formed and launched themselves ferociously at the police.
