Roman, a student from Toulouse testifies after surprising burglars at his home. Shock, investigation and imminent move.
Saturday November 9, Roman, a 21-year-old student, returns home to the Trois Cocus district in Toulouse. The tenant is aware that there have been several problems: “Young people were doing anything in the underground car park on scooters, the neighborhood complained several times.” As he mechanically opened the door, he noticed an anomaly: “I wanted to change, but the door to my bathroom, lying on the floor, was blocking the entrance. I heard a noise inside without really realizing what it was. ‘was happening.’
An unexpected return that thwarts the burglars
Sneaking into his home, Roman discovers the extent of the damage: drawers moved, games console missing. “I realized I had just been robbed.” The criminals, disturbed by his unexpected return, fled through the balcony, taking the same route as when they arrived, forcing the opening with a screwdriver. This hasty return of the student allowed him to avoid complete looting, but the trauma remains raw: “They searched my room. I no longer feel safe at home.”
A persistent feeling of insecurity
The police intervened the next day to take samples, “to find DNA, they focused on objects and places which had only been handled by the burglars.” Investigators have also reported several similar break-ins in the neighborhood in recent weeks. In the meantime, the investigation continues. Roman is staying with a friend and has given notice of departure to his landlord. He prefers to leave this accommodation before the end of his internship in Toulouse.
