NEWS La DEPECHE. Toulouse: a man seriously injured by stab wounds
A man was evacuated in “absolute emergency” to the Rangueil hospital, in Toulouse, this Wednesday in the middle of the afternoon. He was injured by several stab wounds. The attacker remains on the run.
Injured in the chest and in one hand, by at least three blade strokes, a man was taken care of this Wednesday, March 9, rue Riquet, between Place Saint-Aubin and Place Dupuy, in Toulouse. Firefighters and a medical team from Smur 31 tried to stabilize the victim before evacuating him to the Rangueil hospital emergency room. His vital prognosis was then engaged and this Wednesday evening, the doctors remain cautious about the evolution of his injuries.
This man was attacked around 3 p.m. “a priori for no coherent reason, confides a police source. A benign thing, a look, a stupidity …” The attacker, a sturdy man according to witnesses, would have jumped on him, him several beatings with a bladed weapon, probably a knife.
An attack as violent as it is rapid. Witnesses alerted the emergency services and the police, but despite searches in the neighborhood and beyond, the perpetrator of this violence remained untraceable on Wednesday evening.
An investigation of course has been opened by the prosecution. For now, the public security police remain seized of the investigations.
