New net in the case of the deadly brawl between rival gangs, which occurred on February 23, 2021 in Boussy-Saint-Antoine, in Essonne.
Twelve young people, all minors, "were arrested early this Tuesday morning by the police from the departmental security of Essonne", indicates a police source, confirming information from RTL.
All were taken into custody "for murder and attempted murder, and participation in a group for the commission of violence," adds the prosecutor's office in Évry-Courcouronnes.
The brawl had taken place in front of the swimming pool of Boussy-Saint-Antoine, in a context of latent war between the rival districts of Vieillet, in Épinay-sous-Sénart, and Cinéastes, in Quincy-sous-Sénart.

A 14-year-old teenager, Toumani, was fatally stabbed in the chest.
Two other young people were injured, including a seriously 13-year-old.
Less than a week after the incident, the alleged perpetrator of the fatal stab at Toumani surrendered to the police.
Aged 15 and from Epinay, he confessed to having "panicked", surrounded by two young people from Quincy during the brawl.
He is jailed for "murder of a 15-year-old minor" and "attempted murder of a 15-year-old minor".
Six other minors from Quincy, aged 16 and 17, are also placed under judicial supervision for violence aggravated by three circumstances (in a meeting, with weapon and premeditation) and participation in a group for the preparation of violence.
This new wave of arrests shows that the investigators are still trying to establish the responsibilities of each of the participants in the brawl that cost Toumani his life.
