Highlights: A woman in her fifties was injured in the left flank while opening the door to a man she knew, suffering from a disorder. The circumstances that motivated his act are still unclear. "He is unfavorably known, especially for acts of theft and violence," says a source close to the case. He was finally arrested using the taser before being transported to the André-Mignot Hospital in Versailles. Still hospitalized this Saturday, he will, at the end, be placed in custody.


A woman in her fifties was injured in the left flank while opening the door to a man she knew, suffering from a disorder.


Settling scores, nocturnal noise, neighborhood disturbance, or simple break in drug treatment... The circumstances that motivated his act are still unclear. This Friday evening in Magny-les-Hameaux, in the Yvelines, a man in his thirties attacked with a knife a woman he knew, at home, when she had just opened the door for him.

The scene takes place around 20:30 p.m. While the victim, in her fifties, is enjoying the evening with a friend, someone knocks on the door. She recognizes the individual: it is an acquaintance of her husband. But the latter is absent. As she opens to inform him, the man facing her loses his temper, brandishes a knife and stabs her several times before fleeing. The fifty-year-old was hit on the left flank. His injuries are serious but no vital organs are affected.

The aggressor arrested

The friend of the victim, who has seen everything, immediately warns the gendarmerie of Yvelines. The Magny-les-Hameaux brigade, with the support of several reservists, quickly arrived at the scene of the attack. Thanks to the first elements collected, they identify the aggressor. "He is unfavorably known, especially for acts of theft and violence, says a source close to the case. He has a schizophrenic profile but does not always seem to take his treatment. He has already been arrested several times on the public highway and summoned for other cases. »

While the victim is transported to the hospital of Poissy in absolute emergency, the soldiers go in search of him. They prowl around his mother's home, where he usually lives, and eventually spot him on the street. The individual makes incoherent statements and is particularly vehement. He was finally arrested using the taser before being transported to the André-Mignot Hospital in Versailles. Still hospitalized this Saturday, he will, at the end, be placed in custody.
