For several days, residents of a Croix-Daurade building in Toulouse have been complaining about not receiving their parcels, suspecting thefts. Until Tuesday, one of them observed the riding school of one of the residents. In the middle of the afternoon, taking advantage of the confinement of the inhabitants, this young man of 26 years had opened the whole block of mailboxes.

And he was taking one of the packages that was not intended for him, when his neighbor approached to ask him what he was doing. Having difficulty justifying himself, his interlocutor decided to call the police. Alerted, other residents alighted after the alleged perpetrator tried to flee. So that when the police from the security and proximity group of Jolimont arrived on the scene, around twenty people surrounded him. In his attempt to escape, he had disposed of a bag which contained other postal parcels.

During the search of his home, the police discovered the mail and open parcels of his neighbors. While in police custody, the young man made delusional remarks, to the point that the police called a psychiatrist. Who, given his condition, hospitalized him automatically.
