His ultra-violent gesture remains inexplicable.
A 28-year-old man was arrested this Saturday evening in Chilly-Mazarin, in Essonne.
He is suspected of having stabbed another 23-year-old man around 7:45 p.m., Place de la Liberation, said a source close to the investigation on Monday, confirming information from BFMTV.
The victim was slightly injured in the chest.
She suffers from 15 days of total incapacity for work (ITT).
His days are not in danger.
According to a police source, the stabber first asked for a cigarette from the victim, who is deaf-mute and has a mild mental disability.
Faced with his refusal, he stabbed him in front of a bakery before fleeing on foot.
“A gratuitous attack”, comments this same source.
The attacker surrendered
Half an hour later, the man who seemed to regret his action called the local police station directly to announce that he wanted to surrender to the authorities at Juvisy-sur-Orge station.
He was therefore arrested on this occasion and placed in police custody.
According to the Evry-Courcouronnes prosecution, he referred this Monday as part of a deferred appearance procedure.
He will therefore be tried within two months for "violence resulting in an incapacity of more than eight days" with three aggravating circumstances: with a weapon, on a vulnerable person and under the influence of narcotics.
The respondent is known to the courts for old convictions, common law acts.
A psychiatric expertise was ordered pending his trial.
The knife was also seized.
