A 16-year-old England fan is one of six charged following the violence in Marseille on the opening weekend of the Euro 2016 football tournament, French prosecutors have confirmed.

A 16-year-old England fan is one of six charged following the violence in Marseille on the opening weekend of the Euro 2016 football tournament, French prosecutors have confirmed.
A 50-year-old English fan is also in a critical condition with severe brain injuries after being attacked by Russia supporters armed with iron bars.
But despite the behaviour of the Russian fans, who fought running battles in the streets and also charged at England fans in the Stade Velodrome after Saturday night's 1-1 opening draw, no Russians have been arrested over the violence.
Brice Robin, chief Marseille prosecutor, told reporters the British teenager was in custody and that he had personally spoken to tournament organisers Uefa to have his future tickets cancelled.
He said about 150 Russian hooligans had been involved in the trouble, describing them as "hyper violent" and "hyper rapid". But he said just two Russian fans had been arrested, both for a pitch invasion.
The prosecutor said he did not think the Russian hooligans were "professional" but they "were extreme".
There were 12,000 Russian fans in Marseille who travelled to the city by train, he said.
Uefa has warned England they face disqualification from the tournament if the widespread violence is repeated.
The governing body branded the behaviour of both England and Russia fans before and after their 1-1 draw ''unacceptable'' and said it would not hesitate to impose additional sanctions.
It also opened disciplinary proceedings against the Russian Football Union for alleged crowd disturbances, racist behaviour and the setting-off of fireworks by its fans during the game on Saturday night.
Meanwhile, a Northern Ireland football fan died after a fall in Nice following the team's 1-0 defeat by Poland.
Darren Rodgers, 25, from Ballymena, toppled 26ft (8m) over a barrier from a promenade on to a hard pebble beach in the south coast city at around 2am on Monday, police said.

Hell in a cell for England fans: Euro hooligans to be holed up in crammed jail
ENGLISH hooligans who get caught breaking the law during next week’s Euro 2016 game have been warned to expect a rough ride at Marseille’s violent prison.
By Jimmy Mccloskey, EXCLUSIVE
Staff at Les Baumettes jail, close to where England face Russia on Saturday, said: “Conditions are very bad”.
Many of its 1,700 inmates are also crammed three to a cell.
Volunteer Mathilde Durr, who helps out at the grim slammer, also revealed lags spend 23 hours a day in confinement.
HELL: Prisoners at Les Baumettes spend 23 hours a day in confinement
She said: “There are a lot of drugs, a lot of violence. Stabbings happen regularly, and there are problems with drugs such as heroin and cannabis.
“No English is spoken. If you can’t speak French, you won’t know what is going on.”
Mathilde and a co-worker, who did not want to be named, also disputed reports that recent building works had dramatically improved conditions at the jail.
Plus, they pointed out that there were few in-cell televisions or games consoles like those found in many British prisons.
Mathilde’s female friend added: “It’s definitely not a holiday camp, not like what you seem to have in your prisons in the UK.”
The Daily Star Sunday visited the imposing cell block this week as families arrived to see their loved ones.
Many appeared stressed and upset by the prospect of even having to enter the fearsome building.
And they angrily batted off questions about conditions inside.

Two England fans have been jailed and banned from France after appearing in a Marseille court charged in connection with the weekend violence.
Alexander Booth and Ian Hepworth were the first fans to be dealt with after the widespread trouble in the French port city, which left another fan with severe head injuries and Euro 2016 organiser Uefa threatening to ban England and Russia if there is any repeat.
Booth, 20, from Huddersfield, was jailed for two months for throwing a bottle at police and banned from France for two years.

Hepworth, 41, a psychiatric nurse from Sheffield, was given a three month sentence for the same offence and the same ban.
Reacting to the sentence, Booth's father Chris, who was later seen in tears, said "I'll fight it" and "miscarriage".
Before being dealt with, Booth told the court: "I would like to say sorry to the police and to the people and city of Marseille. This is not like me; I'm not a violent person. I love my job and my family. I've never been involved in football hooliganism.
"I was in the wrong place at the wrong time."
Booth was accused of throwing a plastic bottle at the police during the trouble.
Still wearing his England shirt, he said it may have looked like it was aimed for the police but it was not.
He said: "I have never had problems with the police, I respect the police very much. I am hard working."
According to court papers, it was Booth's 20th birthday on Sunday.
Hepworth was accused of throwing a bottle at the police and then walking forward to pick up a second bottle.
He claimed he could not remember what had happened.
The injured England fan, Andrew Bache, 50, from Portsmouth, was in a critical condition in a French hospital after being beaten round the head by Russians armed with iron bars.

What really makes me angry is how the hell did a Russian mob get anywhere near Marseilles, let alone into the City centre to cause mayhem? If this is an example of French security and Police intelligence what the hell would they have done if the Russian thugs had been I.S. instead with guns! Absolute joke security and the French police could learn a lot from our S.W.P. in how to spot and segregate rival groups. For pitys sake the Russians even had black t shirts on so don't tell me they were hard to spot.
