It happened due to protests linked to a singer called Fally Ipupa from Congo that will be performing in one of the biggest scene in France, near the train station.
Apparently he's the target of opponents of the outgoing president in Congo, Felix Tshisekedi. I guess some people found it right to start a fire to protest against his concert.

Well, it's not like something is not burning somewhere in France every week due to protests or strikes. So why not this one....

Can anyone see a face in the smoke in the OP?

Marie-Antoinette's face is appearing in the smoke every time there is a fire burning in France. She's out for revenge and haunts us for chopping her head off.

No doubt The Guardian will do an article tomorrow outing the smoke face pic as an alt-right anti-jewish trope and get Own Jones to say he knew all along and the fact its black-face is typical of the rise of the far right in combustibles..

I use Gare de Lyon quite a bit, so it’s very sad to see it like this.
