In Evry-Courcouronnes, on the other hand, inter-neighborhood clashes are regular.
The Parc des Loges maintains a rivalry with the Champtier-du-Coq, while the Pyramids oppose the Canal de Courcouronnes district.
Twenty-one years ago, in 2000, a 14-year-old teenager from the Canal died of a buckshot discharge in the context of gang warfare.
