This is a new, dramatic attack which occurred in front of the Le QG nightclub, located on the banks of the Doubs in Besançon. On the night of Thursday November 7 to Friday November 8, a man was beaten by several individuals, according to information from L’Est Républicain, confirmed by the Besançon public prosecutor’s office.
The victim, aged 26, is a soldier from Besançon, according to the public prosecutor’s office, who refuses to characterize the facts as “brawl”but rather of a “assault” one-sided, of which the young man would be the only victim. An attack violent enough for the young man to lose consciousness.
The firefighters, called by the managers of the nightclub, took care of the young man in a coma, who was immediately transported to Besançon University Hospital to be hospitalized in serious condition. From a judicial source, this Sunday morning, his vital prognosis is still “engaged.”
The Besançon public prosecutor’s office refuses to make any additional comments, as the investigation is underway to determine the circumstances of the tragedy. New information could be revealed at the start of the week.
The establishment received two warnings from the Doubs prefecture in 2022 and 2023, prior to administrative closure for disturbances to public order. A “final warning” which had been the subject of an appeal by the managers, an appeal canceled at the end of September by the administrative court of Besançon.
“I have ten security guards inside and others outside to manage the parking lotdeclared Matthieu Garny, manager of the HQ, to France 3 Franche-Comté, last October. We can’t monitor what’s happening in the adjacent streets, what more can we do?
Also read: Threatened with administrative closure, this nightclub counterattacks: “what we are criticized for is perhaps that we are doing too well.”
Contacted regarding the attack on Friday, November 8, the manager of the establishment did not respond to our requests. As for the Doubs prefecture, it did not wish to comment on the facts.
