Two people were arrested as part of the investigation into the shooting at Zac de Rivière-Roche in Fort-de-France. Two people were killed during this tragedy which took place during the night from Sunday to Monday (October 3 and 4).
The investigation opened following the shooting which occurred in a residence in the Zac de Rivière-Roche in Fort-de-France is progressing gradually. The information broke late in the afternoon. Two people were challenged in the Holy Spirit.
They were placed in police custody. According to our information, one of them had been very actively sought for several weeks.
The shooting which occurred on the night of Sunday to Monday (October 3 and 4) cost the lives of two people: a 15-year-old teenager and a 20-year-old young woman. Three people were seriously injured.
This fact provokes reactions in the political class. In a press release, Marcellin Nadeau expresses his “deep sadness” and his “immense emotion”. The MP recalls the importance of acting against the proliferation of firearms on our territory.
We therefore strongly reiterate our call for the establishment of a parliamentary commission of inquiry to shed light on the circulation of weapons in our country and analyze the root causes (PR n° 2043). It is essential to investigate and take measures commensurate with this crisis to protect our fellow citizens and guarantee the safety of all.
