It was 5 p.m. when the Pyrénées-Orientales firefighters were alerted of an attack in Arles-sur-Tech this Saturday, November 9, 2024. It was in this small village in Haut-Vallespir that a man and a woman received stabbings at the end of the day, in the heart of the Catalan city.
Firefighters were rushed to the scene. According to initial information, when the victims were treated, a 41-year-old woman was suffering from knife wounds on her back. His condition, considered very serious by the Samu emergency doctor, required absolute emergency transport to the Perpignan hospital center. The 46-year-old man, who is believed to be his companion, had an injury to his hand. The bladed weapon would have pierced his skin. He was taken to the emergency department of the Catalan mutual clinic. Despite the severity of the injuries, the vital prognoses of the two victims, who were said to be from Corsavy, were not guaranteed.
According to information from L'Indépendant, a third person was arrested and taken into police custody this Saturday, November 9, 2024. This individual, suspected of being the author of the stabbings, is believed to be an acquaintance of the couple. But how could a conflict escalate to this point? The investigation will have to provide this answer.
