A masked gunman made "two wounded by bullets including one very seriously" Sunday evening in a brasserie of Ajaccio, in Corse-du-Sud. "A priori a helmeted shooter arrives and shoots several times on two men who are sitting at table before leaving as he came on a scooter," said Sylvain Darchy, deputy prosecutor of Ajaccio.
Among the two people affected, the least injured is known for minor acts of the police and justice services but "a priori" not the second most seriously affected. Rescue workers, firefighters and the Samu team took care of the victims, who were evacuated to the Mercy Hospital, says Corse-Matin.
Witnesses shocked by the violence of the scene
At least three people were evacuated to the hospital, "shocked by the violence of the scene," according to the prosecution of Ajaccio. Among the people evacuated in shock from the Aktuel brewery, located in the commercial activity center of Suartello, a pregnant woman is said to have felt unwell.
The investigation, opened for attempted assassination, was entrusted to the judicial police, added Sylvain Darchy.
