A fire at a kosher restaurant near Paris was arson, police said. The window of the restaurant in Epinay-sur-Seine, in the northern suburbs of the capital, was smashed early April 3 and flammable material was thrown into the building. The restaurant was empty at the time of the attack. Police have yet to establish whether the motivation was anti-Semitic.
