The victim, who received a stab or two with a stab at the bust, in the street in the Firminy-Vert district, shortly before 4 p.m., could not be saved by the intervention of the emergency services. His body should be autopsied Tuesday at the Medico-legal Institute of Saint-Etienne.
Among the two alleged attackers, also in their twenties, one was arrested and placed in police custody by the departmental urban security. The other, on the run, is wanted by the police, said the same source. The trio was already known to the police.
This murder comes in a context of confinement, linked to the health crisis, marked by tense neighborhood relations between these people for several days, said the prosecution of Saint-Etienne.
