This quarrel for the favors of a woman could well have been fatal.
A 28-year-old man was indicted on Thursday in Bobigny (Seine-Saint-Denis) for “attempted murder” before being imprisoned.
He is suspected of having seriously injured a young man by gunfire on February 11 in Saint-Denis, following an evening organized in the Cameroonian community.
That morning, it was 5:30 a.m. when a Mercedes showed up at the emergency room at Delafontaine hospital.
A couple places an injured person in the hands of caregivers.
The man was hit by two bullets.
The first lodged in his chest and the second in his right thigh.
His vital prognosis is in jeopardy.
He was quickly operated on and eventually he was out of the woods.
The two people who dropped him off at the hospital left the scene after saying that the shooting took place at the Porte de la Chapelle in Paris (18th century).
But investigations into telephony and video surveillance quickly contradicted their version.
The victim is questioned and appears uncooperative.
The police found the location of the incident.
“The shots were fired on the sidewalk at the exit of a night establishment where a dance party was organized,” specifies a source close to the case.
Quarrel about a dance with a woman
On Tuesday, two witnesses were arrested at their homes in Seine-Saint-Denis by investigators from the departmental judicial police service (SDPJ 93).
They explain that during this event everyone was drunk when a conflict broke out between the injured man and another man over dancing with a woman.
The quarrel was settled outside with gunshots.
The suspect was arrested on Wednesday in Yvelines, before being placed in police custody in Bobigny.
This man was not known to the police.
During the search, the murder weapon was not found.
During the hearings, the alleged shooter remained silent.
