Settling of scores in this major artery of the city, rue Sadi-Carnot, in Bagnolet (Seine-Saint-Denis).
A 34-year-old man was seriously injured in a shooting overnight from Saturday to Sunday.
It was 1:45 a.m., at the corner of rue Sadi-Carnot and rue du Moulin, when local residents called for help and reported that a man had been shot.
A patrol goes to the scene.
But the victim is no longer there.
A witness said he heard several explosions and saw a man on the ground.
The injured man was rescued and placed in a car by two of his friends.
“A few minutes later, the emergency department of the Floréal clinic informed the police that a man suffering from several gunshot wounds had just been admitted to the emergency room,” specifies a source close to the case.
Victim refuses to speak to law enforcement
On site, the police discovered five 9 mm caliber shell casings and an impact on the window of the front door of a building at 120, rue Sadi-Carnot.
On the other side of the street, at number 115, two other impacts were noted as if there had been an exchange of gunfire.
At the same time, another crew goes to the clinic to question the victim.
Officers surprise two drunk men waiting in the parking lot.
The first is armed with a 7.65 caliber semi-automatic pistol and the second's hands are stained with blood.
Inside the establishment, the injured person is still in a treatment room.
He is conscious.
But he refuses to speak to law enforcement.
The 30-year-old was shot six times in the legs and was transferred to the Georges Pompidou hospital in Paris (15th century) for surgery.
During the night, investigators did not gather any information on this man's activities that could explain this settling of scores.
The Seine-Saint-Denis territorial security is responsible for carrying out investigations into this matter probably linked to drug trafficking.
“This department has a very high number of gunshot wounds and kidnappings and kidnappings,” underlines a police commissioner.
But fortunately, these conflicts between drug traffickers in the Paris region only result in assassinations less often than in Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône).
