What happened, Wednesday January 15 shortly after 9 a.m., at the home of a Marlien located near the Grange-aux-Ormes estate which houses the golf course? The occupant of the premises reported having been attacked by five armed and hooded men who entered his home while he was in the presence of his son and a friend who had come to take care of the dogs.
Valuable items were allegedly stolen from him. Having managed to escape, the friend informed the police. The police went to the scene but the suspects had disappeared.
A complaint was filed at the Metz police station for “organized gang extortion committed with a weapon” and for “kidnapping”. According to our information, an investigation is underway. The Metz public prosecutor's office declined to comment. Using the images captured by the property's video surveillance cameras should make it possible to see the circumstances a little more clearly.
