A man in his twenties was shot dead on Monday evening in front of a building in the city Frais-Vallon, in the 13th arrondissement of Marseille, we learned from a source close to the file, confirming information from Provence . The victim was hit in the head while he was driving his car and about to start. The firefighters were unable to resuscitate him.

The weapon used "is probably a long weapon (a rifle or a gun, for example) but not an assault rifle (like a Kalashnikov)", confides a police source to 20 Minutes . This operating mode "seems to correspond to that of a settlement of accounts", continues this same source, which recalls that the Frais-Vallon city is known to be one of the hot spots of drug trafficking in Marseille.

The criminal brigade of the judicial police was seized.
