What happened on the night of Friday November 22 to Saturday November 23, 2024? Man shot dead after being shot “in a settling of scores against a backdrop of drug trafficking”specifies Rémi Coutin, the public prosecutor to our colleagues at The Awakening of Pont-Audemer.
Contacted by Paris Normandythe mayor of the commune Alexis Darmois indicates that “the elected officials were present on the scene last night for the first observations with the gendarmes”.
The events took place between midnight and one a.m. on Saturday, near the fire station. Domiciled in Pont-Audemer, the victim born in 1991 and “known to the courts”specifies the magistrate, was on board a vehicle as a passenger.
Several shots
Two vehicles approached and their occupants opened fire to prevent the escape of the car where the victim was. It was to protect themselves that the driver, uninjured, and the passenger headed towards the fire station where the passenger finally died.
An autopsy carried out at the start of the week will determine the nature of the injuries and the number of bullets received by the deceased man. The attackers “fired with weapons of different calibers” on the car, whose occupants were not armed, our colleagues specify.
The entered searches section
The parquet “seized the research section of the Rouen gendarmerie”. A flagrant investigation into organized gang murder and attempted organized gang murder has been opened. The perpetrators of the crime, currently being sought, have not yet been identified. It is also necessary to determine the number of attackers involved in the shooting.
