It looks very much like a new set of accounts. This Wednesday morning a little before 8am, the facade of a building was riddled with bullets in the district of Maurepas in Rennes, we learned from the public prosecutor, confirming information from Ouest-France . It is an apartment located on the fourth floor which was particularly targeted by the shots "most certainly coming from an automatic weapon", says Philippe Astruc.
No casualty is fortunately to be deplored. On the spot, the police officers, who was seized of the case, found many casings. Shortly after, a stolen car was found burnt down in Saint-Grégoire north of Rennes. Checks are underway to determine whether the perpetrator (s) were on board the vehicle.
Already nine settlements since the start of the year
The police investigation just starting, the prosecutor is cautious. But according to him, "these new facts of certain gravity could be part of a series of" settling of accounts ", on the background of drug trafficking, which have clearly accelerated since the beginning of the confinement".
Since the beginning of the year, the Breton capital, unaccustomed to this outbreak of violence, has already recorded nine particularly violent accounts settlements. "Five of these episodes have already been elucidated," said the public prosecutor, adding that eleven people have been charged, including nine who have been imprisoned.
