Sunday, he had forced an organized roadside check as part of the measures taken to contain the population to fight against the spread of Covid-19. A 17-year-old young man was charged by a children's judge at the Grasse court.
During this incident, which took place in Cagnes-sur-Mer (Alpes-Maritimes), one of the police officers present had used his service weapon but the young man had managed to flee. He then surrendered on his own on Tuesday.
Investigation into why the police fired
Originally from Nice and currently living in Cagnes-sur-Mer, this minor was charged with driving without a license and refusing to comply, and was fined for not showing his travel certificate. On the other hand, it has not been established, contrary to what the first elements of the investigation suggested, that he attempted to charge the police officer who used his weapon.
He was therefore not charged with intentional violence against any person holding public authority. An investigation is underway into the conditions of use of his weapon by the police officer who opened fire.
Presented to a liberty and detention judge, the minor was released without judicial control, contrary to the requisitions of the prosecution and the judge who wanted pretrial detention, adds the prosecutor's office of Grasse.
