Despite rather mild temperatures for the season, homeless people remain particularly vulnerable.
On the night of Wednesday to Thursday, a 46-year-old homeless man was found dead at Place des Capucins in Bordeaux, around 1:15 a.m.
Two other homeless people tried to resuscitate the victim, but he was dead when help arrived on the scene.
An investigation has been opened by the Bordeaux prosecutor's office to determine the causes of death.
Although the victim has no apparent injuries, an autopsy will take place in the coming days.
