Barge fires in Paris: the trail of a single arsonist favored. Ibrahim Z.
is now suspected by the courts of being the arsonist of the Café Barge on the 22nd January. Aged 22, the young man was presented for the first time before the Paris court on February 1. Two days earlier, he was arrested by police after his DNA was found on a stone used to break the window of the Petrus III. While a first fire had broken out within this boat a few days earlier without causing any damage, this time, the interior of the boat had been heavily damaged by the flames.
