The nights have been violent for several days in the northern district of Nantes. This morning, along the Route de Chapelle, while parents parade holding their children's hands, leading them to a nearby school, a parking lot is blocked by the national police. Residents are trying to recover their vehicles parked here this weekend to go to work, in vain. Yellow tape surrounds the premises. On site, men from the scientific and technical police are carrying out surveys, and investigators from the organized and specialized crime division (DCOS, formerly PJ) are also present.
Man shot and injured in building elevator shaft
And for good reason, this night Kalashnikov shots rang out again in the neighborhood. Around 12:25 a.m. this Tuesday, November 12, 2024, firefighters came to the aid of a 45-year-old man injured by a gunshot to the abdomen, and taking refuge in the elevator shaft of a building, rue de Brest. The departmental fire and rescue operational center (Codis) specifies that the man was transported in absolute emergency to the Nantes University Hospital
in an emergency vehicle.
A kilometer away, Kalashnikov shots also pierced the night, around 3:30 a.m., rue de Montréal. According to our information, several individuals are behind the shots, who apparently entered an apartment. No injuries were reported in this area.
Gunshots had already rang out in the neighborhood on Sunday
Already on Sunday, November 10, in the same Chêne-des-Anglais neighborhood in Nantes, the bullets had whistled around 4 a.m. and a motorist who was driving nearby had received gunshot impacts on the body of his vehicle. A warhead had also passed through the window of an apartment, 6 rue Samuel-de-Champlain, without causing any injuries inside.
