The impact was so severe that the victims' car was cut in half.
An accident caused by a motorist fleeing the police left two dead and two seriously injured, all from the same family, in the vehicle that he collided with around 1 a.m. this Sunday, at the crossroads of Rights-of- L'Homme, in Aulnay-sous-Bois.
The driver was driving in a black Mercedes Vitto.
He had been chased by an anti-crime brigade vehicle a little earlier, following a refusal to comply in Champigny-sur-Marne (Val-de-Marne).
According to the first elements of the investigation, he would have run a red light located at the exit of the A3 and would then have hit head-on a Citroën C4.
At the edge of the latter, a family from Aulnay-sous-Bois.
The 36-year-old mother driving the vehicle and her three-year-old son died instantly.
The 39-year-old father and their 7-year-old daughter were transported respectively to Beaujon hospital (Clichy) and Necker hospital (Paris XVe), between life and death.
The driver was drunk and under the influence of drugs
The national and municipal police, who were the first to arrive, did everything to save the family members by administering a cardiac massage to them, before the arrival of the firefighters and the Samu.
But in vain.
Everyone was still very shocked this Sunday morning.
To the point that a psychological listening cell has been set up for the police and potential witnesses of the accident, indicated the Bobigny prosecutor's office on Sunday.
The young man suspected of being at the origin of the tragedy, for his part, escaped the accident unscathed.
He even tried to escape on foot but was caught by municipal police.
Aged 35, a native of Paris, he would not be known to the police.
He tested positive for cannabis and was driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.86 mg / l, which could explain his refusal to submit to police control.
He was taken into police custody and was to be heard by a judge.
He should be prosecuted for manslaughter.
