Thirty adolescents aged 12 to 15 were excluded from the aquatic center of Mornant (Rhône) on Monday. The mayor decided to prohibit them from the entrance throughout the summer.
While the summer season had just started at the aquatic center Les Bassins de l’Aqueduc in the small town of Mornant, south of Lyon, around thirty young people aged 12 to 15 were excluded from the municipal swimming pool on Monday. “They arrived in small groups and were immediately hyperagressive, from the entrance. Then once inside, they put the brothel ”says Renaud Pfeffer, the LR mayor of the commune confirming information from Progress . Quickly the situation degenerates and the staff must call the municipal police and the gendarmerie to bring out the troublemakers. But faced with the aggressiveness of young boys, it will ultimately take the intervention of the PSIG (Peloton for surveillance and intervention of the gendarmerie) to restore order. “One of the kids threatened a gendarme with a screwdriver telling him that he was going to plant him”says the mayor.

Immediately the latter decided to exclude adolescents for the whole summer: “I made three decisions following this incident. Now there will be a systematic and immediate exclusion for the whole season for all troublemakers. We will strengthen the safety of the premises with the workforce of private agents. And finally I added video surveillance cameras to clear those who cause disorders from the first incident ”. According to the elected LR, young Monday troublemakers were arrested, a few minutes after their exclusion from the swimming pool by the police, trying to steal a scooter in the town. One of the parents would also have called the aquatic center and threatened and insulted a municipal agent.

“We have already had small overflows in the past but we have always managed to manage them. There it was something else. I tell myself that we are in Mornant who is a quiet city. What should it be elsewhere? “concludes Renaud Pfeffer.
