Several individuals have tried to set fire to a vehicle in Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône). Inside the car trunk was a man, seriously injured by the head. The latter died as a result of his injuries.
These residents were somewhat taken aback by the scene which took place under their window, in the SNCF city of Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône). This Wednesday, July 23, shortly before 11 p.m. on Wednesday, July 23, residents saw several individuals trying to set fire to a vehicle. Alerted, the emergency services and the police arrived on site: by opening the trunk of the vehicle, the latter discovered a man seriously injured with a ball in the head and in cardiorepiratory arrest, tell our colleagues as Provence.
Despite help efforts, the victim died on the spot. The survey in flagrance on this homicide was entrusted to the division of organized and specialized crime of the judicial police, said the Marseille prosecutor’s office, stressing that no arrest took place at this stage and that the victim has not yet been identified.
If the link between this homicide and narcobanditism has not yet been officially established, the method used by attackers clearly reminds of a new “narchicidal”, these homicides against the backdrop of drug trafficking and gang war for control of drug points in the second city in France. If this thesis was confirmed, it would be the 8th Narchomicide this year in the Bouches-du-Rhône, after 24 dead in 2024 and 49 dead, a record, in 2023.
