"The 'narco thugs' have no limits any more... These shootouts aren't happening in South America, they're happening in Rennes, in Poitiers... we're at a tipping point," Retailleau said Friday.

I mean, they're happening in South America too.

Just that control of distribution turf in France is also something worth money and thus worth fighting over, just like control of smuggling pipelines out of Latin America. And because it's all illegal activity, it's not like competing distributors can go to law enforcement or the courts to mediate things, so it goes back to the law of the jungle whenever conflict resolution has to happen.
