A romantic date that was not one.
On Monday May 1, around 1:30 a.m., in Etiolles, Essonne, a man was about to meet a young woman he had met on a dating site.
But, when he arrived, three men brutally grabbed him.
A trap.
Abducted, kidnapped and stripped
The ordeal will last two hours.
First, the three young attackers began by filming their victim, forcing him to say that she was a pedophile.
Then the criminals demanded that the man board their vehicle.
While he was rebelling, they shot him several times "
from a handgun, probably airsoft or alarm pistol
,"
a police source told Le
Figaro .
The small group then wandered from town to town, passing through Soisy-sur-Seine and Évry.
They went to different ATMs to empty the account of their victim, who had no choice but to deliver the codes for his bank card.
The small gang finally freed their victim, leaving him his vehicle, but without returning his cell phone and personal effects.
An investigation has been opened for "kidnapping", "forcible confinement", "aggravated extortion" and "violence with a weapon".
