Europe 1
. The parents of the girl reported her disappearance to the gendarmerie on Monday at 6:40 p.m.

Did the girl escape several kidnappers?
According to
BFMTV
, the 17-year-old girl mentioned the existence of several kidnappers in her first statements to investigators.

worrying disappearance
" had been reclassified as “
Kidnapping and forcible confinement
”.
It is not known for the moment how the young girl was able to escape possible kidnappers before taking refuge in the kebab. Did she run away from a car or did she arrive on foot? The hearing of the young girl and the analysis of the video surveillance will undoubtedly make it possible to know more. A shopkeeper in rue Gambetta, located just in front of the kebab where the young girl took refuge, told
Figaro that he
had received a visit from investigators to view the video surveillance of his store. “
I have a surveillance camera, but it is at the back of the store and is not made for filming at night. We tried to look with the gendarmes but we can't see anything,
