“Unfavorably known to the police and the justice system,” the individual found dead was allegedly shot several times by two masked people during the night from Sunday to Monday. The Nantes public prosecutor's office took charge of the investigation.
Murder in the port city. The Saint-Nazaire emergency services, which intervened urgently in a tower in the sensitive Bouletterie district, around 4:25 a.m. this morning, were unable to resuscitate a 19-year-old young man, who died before their arrival as a result of gunshot wounds. According to the first examinations carried out by the judicial police, including the shell casings found at the crime scene, it would be a pure and simple execution. An investigation into an organized gang assassination was entrusted to the Nantes public prosecutor's office.
“Two individuals, faces masked, possibly armed with rifles, forced their way into the premises and went to the victim’s bedroom where they fired several times. Subsequently, they fled in a vehicle at the wheel of which a third accomplice was waiting for them.declared late Monday morning the public prosecutor of Saint-Nazaire, Florence Sroda.
Autopsy expected Wednesday
The scene took place in the presence of the victim's father and younger brother, who were not injured during the tragedy and were able to dial 18. The murdered young man was “unfavorably known to the police and the justice system”.
No arrests were reported midday Monday. According to our colleagues at Ocean Press the commando of killers would have forced the door of the accommodation by blowing the lock with a gun, then the victim would have been hit in the chest, arms and head. Investigators from the Organized and Specialized Crime Division (DCOS) are still looking for the circumstances and precise motive of this Marseille-style murder, which is extremely violent for Saint-Nazaire – even in neighborhoods plagued by drug trafficking. The victim's autopsy will be carried out on Wednesday at the Nantes forensic institute.
