Toulouse, wounded by bullet, the victim does not understand who could have shot him
A man was targeted Thursday afternoon in a garden in the Bagatelle district of Toulouse. Shot in one arm, this man was not very talkative in the face of questions from the police.
The day after the attack on a 25-year-old man in a garden in the Bagatelle district of Toulouse, the investigators of the judicial police remain with their questions and few answers. In the middle of the afternoon Thursday, a man was dropped off by friends in the emergency room of the Ambroise-Parré clinic, near the neighborhood where the shooting broke out. This man whose status on the national territory would not be official has just been injured in an arm.
“It must have been impossible to remove the projectile but his life is not in danger,” said the prosecution yesterday. Before passing into the hands of surgeons at the Purpan hospital yesterday, he was able to be heard by the police officers of the territorial direction of the judicial police in charge of the investigation. This hearing would have been a dialogue of the deaf, the victim could not provide the police with elements likely to help them in their investigations.
A fairly standard position in this kind of circumstance. This shot seems in any case to have been precise since the shooter, who arrived alone on a two-wheeler, parked and then headed directly towards his target who did not have time to escape. The driver of the scooter quickly left.
Is this attack a response to another gunshot on the evening of Sunday January 3? There too a man had been injured in the same neighborhood and not very precise in the face of the investigators. “It’s much too early to establish a link, warns the Toulouse prosecutor’s office. The investigation is just beginning and there is nothing to link the two cases. Operation, Thursday’s victim is fine. The large caliber bullet, probably 9 mm, removed from his arm was called for analysis by ballistics specialists at the Toulouse forensic science laboratory.
