After the time of fear, that of solidarity.

A few days after the murder of three gendarmes in Saint-Just (Puy-de-Dôme) when they intervened to rescue the companion of a madman, who had assaulted her and had taken refuge in his home, a pot was put online to help their families.

As reported by our colleagues from France Bleu, it was launched by the House of the gendarmerie to support the relatives of Arno Mavel, 21-year-old brigadier, Lieutenant Cyrille Morel, 45 years old, and the adjutant Rémi Dupuis, 37 years old.

And this kitty obviously arouses a great outpouring of generosity since the foundation invites, on its site, to “defer [his] donation by a few hours” in view of the large number of connections.

"People thank those who protect them on a daily basis"

Shortly after it was put online, Hélène Gontaud, vice-president of the Maison de la Gendarmerie foundation, already told France Bleu that she was "very pleasantly surprised by this enormous outpouring of generosity towards these families who have been touched by madness. of our world ”, rejoicing that“ people thank their gendarmerie, those who protect them on a daily basis.

"

The madman, a 48-year-old man with an entire arsenal, had also injured a fourth gendarme, fortunately protected by his bulletproof vest.

If his partner could be taken to safety, he had managed to escape before his body was found in the early morning near his car, about a kilometer from his home.
