One of the co-defendants of the media caïd creillois, Redoine Faïd, was arrested during the night from Tuesday to Wednesday in Villepinte (Seine-Saint-Denis) in flagrante delicto while trying to rob a BNP ATM.
It is 2:35 a.m. at the corner of Allée des Cascades and Rue du Canal when a security guard from the banking establishment's remote surveillance company alerts the police and reports the presence of two men with suspicious behavior.
A patrol quickly arrives on the scene and finds that the two criminals begin to attack the door with a “Door raider”.
“It is a tool used by elite units like the Raid which allows you to force an armored door in twenty seconds without making noise”, specifies a source close to the case.
They fell into a pool
When they see the police, the thugs flee on foot.
One of them is caught and arrested despite his resistance.
“There was a big fight, says a witness.
They even fell into a water retention basin”.
The second bandit is caught by a single policeman but the fugitive does not let it go.
He gets the upper hand on the peacekeeper before managing to escape.
In their white Renault Espace, equipped with a blue flashing light, falsely plated and reported stolen since last June in Beauvais (Oise), the police got their hands on the panoply of the perfect bank breaker: a hydraulic cylinder, a grinder, pliers, a flashing light and a set of license plates.
Acquitted of the murder of Aurélie Fouquet
The arrested suspect was taken into police custody at the premises of the Paris banditry repression brigade.
This man, originally from Creil, is close to the king of escape.
He is stuck with organized crime and he was acquitted in April 2016 by the Paris Assize Court for the murder of Aurélie Fouquet.
This 26-year-old municipal police officer was shot dead during a failed robbery of an armored van on May 20, 2010 in Villiers-sur-Marne (Val-de-Marne).

The rest of the investigations should make it possible to identify his accomplice but also to determine whether these men have not committed other misdeeds of the same kind.
Teams target agencies in the Paris region to loot ATMs that can hold up to 150,000 euros.
For the record, already on the night of September 19, 2022 in Flins-sur-Seine (Yvelines) a gang stole the money from Société Générale de Flins-sur-Seine through the roof.
