According to a source close to the case, the case is "
not linked to a brawl
", as is often the case in this department particularly affected by clashes between rival gangs, but to "
a transaction that would have gone wrong
" between two individuals.
An investigation has been opened for "
voluntary homicide
", indicated the prosecution of Évry, contacted by AFP.
The victim was "
a little known to the police, but for old offenses
," said the source close to the investigation.
The alleged attacker was on the run Friday afternoon.
The investigation was entrusted to the judicial police of Essonne.
