The manager of a bakery in Marseille was violently attacked and robbed by four masked robbers when he had just left his establishment by car. One of the criminals, carrying a 9mm automatic pistol, directly attacked the manager by hitting him several times with a rifle butt.
The attackers finally managed to get their hands on the bag containing the recipe for the manager's bakery, in addition to stealing his Rolex watch and the keys to his Range Rover. The latter, declared stolen and falsely registered, was found burned in the town of Aubagne.
