So she called 101. “Police officers arrived, quickly followed by an ambulance. I realized he was dead when she left with nothing.” The death of the fifty-year-old dates back several days.
For the one who grew up with the fifty-year-old, “we played together in the street after school”, it’s a huge shock.
“He is an extremely kind man. I never saw him argue or get angry. He wore his heart on his sleeve. He would have given others what he did not have. We are all under the shock in the street is terrible, no one understands what happened.”
Originally from Hutois, Jean-Marc Cornette has worked in several cafes in the region. He then continued his career in Blegny in a restaurant before returning to Huy for a few years.
A wanted person
At this time, the death is considered suspicious. It must be said that the deceased bore various marks of blows and had probably bled from the nose and mouth. However, it is possible that these injuries are the result of a fall.
In any case, the Liège public prosecutor’s office, which refuses to make any comments, has been informed and has put the case under investigation. A man who regularly went to Jean-Marc Cornette is also wanted as a witness.
An autopsy of the body is planned.
