The murder of young Nicolas, a year after that of young Thomas, killed during a ball in Crépol (Drôme), was particularly emotional in their joint Rugby club, the Rugby Club Romans-Péage, which announced on Monday that it was organizing a march white in his honor on Wednesday.
Around 2:55 a.m. Friday, a hooded individual dressed in black fired several shots towards the queue at the Le Seven nightclub where nearly 800 people, many of whom also dressed in black, were participating in a Halloween evening. .
Nicolas, injured in the head, was transported in absolute emergency to the Valence hospital center, with a life-threatening condition, before dying on Saturday.
A customer and a security guard at the establishment, also near the queue, were slightly injured in the legs.
