The police received a call around 1:55 p.m. for a dead man in the northern sector of Angrignon Park, 250 m from the metro station of the same name. They noted his death upon their arrival, his body lying a few meters from the banks of a lake.
Until the evening, the police spoke of a “suspicious death”, before attributing his death to an “accidental” cause.
The man’s identity is not yet publicly known. However, we know that he arrived at the park on Sunday evening for a small party with friends. The people present there left the party in the evening, while the body was found the next day.
