A person tried, in vain, to save the victim, before the arrival of help.

The Lyon prosecutor's office has opened an investigation for "murder in an organized gang following the shootings that caused the death" of the 30-year-old, a man from Kosovo according to Le Progrès.

She will have to determine the motive of the crime.

Still according to the regional daily, the tracks of the settlement of accounts as well as that of a private dispute are not excluded.
