Fights with knives or iron bars follow one another in the area of Place Aragon, in Colombes.
With seriously injured people.
Monday evening, three men were hospitalized, stabbed for one, hit on the head with a glass bottle for the second, badly beaten for the last.
These three victims, whose identity is not yet confirmed, would have their habits on the place Aragon, in the heart of the district of Petit-Colombes, where they would offer cigarettes under the cloak.
This is not to the taste of some young people in the neighborhood who, for their part, trade in bars of hash.
In any case, Place Aragon seems to have become the stake of a territorial rivalry.
Already two fights on Sunday
Before the brawl on Monday, the police had already intervened the day before, after a clash in which about twenty people were allegedly involved, who were fighting with iron bars.
When the police arrived on the spot, the groups were enlivened.
A 21-year-old man was nevertheless arrested after he had disposed of a tear gas canister and a screwdriver.
According to the explanations of this cigarette dealer, he and others would have come to the square on this Sunday evening, with the intention of taking revenge and recovering what had been stolen from them a few hours earlier.
Still according to him, on Sunday morning, he and his fellow street vendors were assaulted and robbed of their money, phones and cigarettes.
Monday evening, it is still those who want to evict the street vendors, who would have taken action.
Three alleged assailants, two young people in their twenties and a teenager, were arrested for this latest episode of violence.
They were still in custody this Tuesday evening.
