A tractor on the road (illustration) -
C. Allain / APEI / 20 Minutes
a small town of Esbareich, in the Hautes-Pyrénées department, lost its peace of mind early in the evening on Tuesday, when the driver of a tractor decided to run into the car of a man with whom he had a disagreement.
Once his plan has been achieved, the driver, well intoxicated, leaves behind the wheel of his machine at his grandmother's house, the gendarmes tell us on their Facebook page.
In the meantime, his victim heard from witnesses of the damage to his vehicle.
His blood only turns and he decides to go in pursuit of the vandal.
He takes a rifle with him and quickly spots the tractor.
The two drivers in police custody
But when he parks, the machine and its driver leave.
He then decides to fire a cartridge into the tractor tire, which continues its journey without stopping.
The motorist suddenly decides to go home.
The tractor driver has not finished his journey, he goes to the village where he threatens several inhabitants, wanting one of them to lend him a car.
He also attacks the mayor of the town.
The gendarmerie, alerted by this dispute, arrested the driver of the tractor, but also the motorist who drew his weapon.
Placed in custody, they will soon be judged in Tarbes for their acts during this more than agitated evening.
