“Maybe it's another shot from our character - still on the run - who destroyed a car using a Menhir on August 25th.

The mayor of Landivisiau, a neighboring town of Plounéventer, was alerted by his town's gendarmerie at 7.15 am.
With the help of municipal employees and a company equipped with lifting equipment, he was able to remove the utility vehicle, the Telegram reported on Monday.
The identified owner
As the bus shelter was not damaged, the town hall did not file a complaint.
However, an investigation was opened and entrusted to the Landivisiau gendarmerie brigade.
The owner of the van, from the Traveler community, has been identified, but investigators have failed to contact him, the Telegram said on Tuesday.
While awaiting a sign from the owner, the vehicle was stored in a garage.
