Seriously injured, the young man was taken care of by emergency services. He was transported to the Dunkirk hospital center in a state of absolute emergency. The victim's vital prognosis is no longer in jeopardy, the prosecutor indicated to Le Parisien, this Sunday evening.
The police quickly began looking for the two attackers, thanks to a physical description from several witnesses. The two suspects, aged 16 and 17, were arrested around fifteen minutes later near the scene of the attack, the same source said. They both had blood alcohol levels slightly below one gram per liter of blood, according to our information.

“These are facts for which the Dunkirk public prosecutor's office opened a separate investigation for intentional violence leading to incapacity for work for more than 8 days, aggravated by three circumstances, committed to the detriment of another sixteen-year-old minor,” said Charlotte Huet. For these latest facts, two other people were also taken into custody, a 19-year-old young man and a 16-year-old teenager.
