According to the gendarmes, the party, which was not free, took place in a guesthouse in this village of 300 inhabitants.
The Caen prosecutor's office indicated that an investigation was open.
But he was not able to quantify the number of participants.
"We are going to have a certain number of police custody this morning", declared Amélie Cladière, public prosecutor of Caen.
Asked about the heads of the investigation, the magistrate indicated that she was "still on the assumptions which are the basis of our work".
“The question of whether it was a paid party causes us to work on possible hidden work.
There would be the issue of degradation in the deposit.
And there would be a possible endangerment of others, but the endangerment of others is an offense which is quite constrained in terms of qualification.
People must have been exposed to immediate risk.
It is a hypothesis for the moment ”.
