Violent assault on a parking lot near Toulouse: two men arrested
Two forty-year-olds suspected of assaulting a man on August 31 in the parking lot of a residence in Villeneuve-Tolosane, west of the department, were arrested by the gendarmes of the community of Cugnaux brigades on Monday.
The scene filmed by a neighbor’s phone is violent. At the end of the afternoon of August 31, in Villeneuve-Tolosane, three individuals clash in the parking lot of a residence. The blows are raining. One of the protagonists even uses a baseball bat …
Bloodied face, the victim immediately went to the gendarmerie to file a complaint. “They attacked me with weapons I thought I would die,” she explained to the Dépêche du Midi after the attack.
Following his complaint, the prosecution decided to open an investigation and entrusted the investigations to the community of brigades of Cugnaux. Well helped by the images produced by the witnesses of the scene, the gendarmes will go back to the two suspects. These men, aged 38 and 40, live in the north of Toulouse and work in the restaurant business. They were apprehended this Monday morning by the police.
And these two people were cooperative. Their hearings revealed a lot more about their motivation. This whole affair would be linked to a romantic break-up. After the separation with his girlfriend, the victim reportedly continued to contact. This attitude ended up scaring his ex-girlfriend. To get out of this embarrassing situation, she reportedly called a friend and her brother for help. The duo then made an appointment with the victim to find out in circumstances still unclear despite the videos of the neighbors. They will certainly say more in court since the two suspects are finally summoned to court in early 2022.
