A young man who came to snatch a gold necklace, in the underground of Toulouse, an attempt to fool the police came to meet him, Friday, September 23, 2022. But the latter quickly grasped the ruse of their interlocutor.
Flight in meeting
While the metro is crowded, around 5:15 p.m., the weekend starts badly for a traveler in his twenties. Two men snatch his necklace in or before fleeing. He then immediately calls the police who, thanks to the videotapes, identifies the duo described by the victim. The public transport security service ended up finding one of the two individuals, a few moments later, in the square Charles-de-Gaulle.
Lunar explanation
Aged 27, he will be apprehended without his partner, but with deep pockets. Of Pregabalin on the one hand, a drug classified as a “psychotropic substance”. And above all, the famous gold necklace stolen a little earlier, on the other hand. But for once, the respondent does not consider himself so much as the culprit…
Placed in police custody, the book gives a somewhat surreal explanation to the police: the man born in 1995 declares that he saw his accomplice tear off the necklace, before to lecture him and blame his actions. He would then have taken back the loot in the hope of crossing paths with the victim in order to give him back his property. Not enough to convince the hosts of the police station, in which the thief is still found, this Saturday morning.
