A man was taken into police custody this Wednesday in Surgères in Charente Maritime. He killed his wife with a gun on Tuesday February 27, Le Figaro learned from a source close to the case.
The individual justified himself by telling the police that he was cleaning his weapon and that the shot would have gone off on its own, reports our source. The spouses were not known to the justice services, specifies our source, and the Samu was already on site at the time of the shooting.
