Bad luck sometimes pursues some.
A sixteen-year-old teenager who had just run away from a home in the Melun sector went on Tuesday May 10 to the northern districts of the city-prefecture, precisely to the Square de Lorient, well known for its drug trafficking.
It took him badly.
According to the police, he is forced by narcotics traffickers on site to sell their products for several hours.
He runs.
The clientele flocked, the trade was lucrative.
After a while, one of the managers of the deal point comes to read the meters.
Problem: he discovers that several hundred euros are missing, given the amount of merchandise that the teenager has left.
(Bad) surprise and annoyance give way to violence.
The manager starts hitting the young salesman.
He is quickly joined by other young people who come out of nowhere, who swoop down on him and beat him with kicks and iron bars.
They also steal his cell phone.
