Michel recounts his fear: “It’s the end of the service, there are two or three tables left. A young couple accompanied by a child leaves the establishment and goes to their car.” When the engine of a Mini Cooper coming down the road at high speed is heard behind them. According to the restaurateur, the father, frightened by the speed of the car, gestured to the motorist to take it easy with the accelerator pedal. The remonstrance absolutely does not please the person concerned. Who slows down, stops on the bridge, gets out of the vehicle and aggressively quarrels with the one who clearly invited him to take a lighter step.
The motorist, in his thirties, is clearly not in his normal state. We don’t know if any shots were lost, but the atmosphere was such that the companion, frightened by this delinquent behavior, entered the restaurant to raise the alarm.
Under arrest warrant
The motorist, beside himself, then goes a step further and worsens his situation: he gets back into his car and pretends to use it as a weapon. He ends up smashing through the restaurant’s portico and injuring the restaurateur’s wife as well as a customer. He doesn’t ask for his rest and runs away. Fortunately no one died but the witnesses to this voluntary exit from the road were shocked. The exterior of the restaurant is fogged with blue lights. The injured, who were slightly injured, were taken to hospital for hematomas, contusions and fractures.
“What a sad time, says Michel Bero. When will we do something to limit speed on the road? We had one killed last year.”
The irascible motorist was caught by the police and placed under arrest warrant for attempted homicide.
