It was 1 a.m. when firefighters rescued the victim – a large man – and evacuated him to the Franciscan clinic. The attacker and his other drinking companions had apparently disappeared when the police intervened at the scene of this tragedy. Abdelkader, the man suspected of stabbing the victim, was arrested a year later in Troyes, in eastern France.
