French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin has ordered a curfew for minors in Pointe-à-Pitre, the economic capital of Guadeloupe, in an attempt to address a crimewave in the French overseas department. Darmanin announced the 8pm curfew as part of the government's response to a rise in crime in the archipelago since the beginning of the year.
