From the scene, the few witnesses say they did not see much, except “a first young person being taken care of at the bottom of the rue de Siam then a second on the Recouvrance bridge”. However, it was shortly after 4:30 p.m. this Sunday, December 22, 2024, when the firefighters and the National Police intervened in the city center of Brest. Two young adults were injured, one in the back, the other in the stomach, by stab wounds. Quickly taken care of by the firefighters and the Samu (Urgent Medical Aid Service), the two men were transported to hospital without their condition causing any particular concern.
An open investigation
The circumstances of the brawl which took place in the town center of the city of Ponant still remain particularly unclear. A priori, the two people taken into care would have been victims of one or more individuals. According to customers of businesses in the immediate vicinity of the scene, at least two people could have run away when the police arrived. “It is first a matter of treating the wounds before trying to unravel what can be unraveled in this matter,” says the National Police. An investigation has been opened.
