A father was injured by three stab wounds this Saturday evening, shortly after 8 p.m., while he was near the Cannes Christmas fair in the Alpes-Maritimes. According to this information from our colleagues from Nice-Matin, the victim is 26 years old.
The man apparently intervened when his daughter, 7 years old, who was skating on the newly installed ice rink, was jostled by a group of young individuals. According to information from the municipality, the group was made up of 6 people. An altercation then broke out at the Christmas market. Subsequently, the young father was stabbed at the fair, says the municipality.
Quickly taken care of by the firefighters on site, the 26-year-old man was then taken to Cannes hospital before leaving in the night, suffering from superficial injuries.
Regarding the alleged perpetrators of the stabbings, two people were arrested. According to the Nice-Matin website, these are minors. These teenagers were taken into custody after being arrested.
The Grasse public prosecutor's office was contacted and opened an investigation for “violence with a weapon”. The investigations launched will try to discover who is the author of these stabbings.
