The intervention of the emergency services had not made it possible to save the victim.

Last year, on the night of September 26 to 27, a young man of 24 was found fatally injured near the Wazemmes metro station in Lille, the victim of several stab wounds.

The traces of a fight had been traced by the police arriving on the spot, shortly after the murder.

The victim was also known to the police for petty crime.

The investigation was then entrusted to the judicial police.

Criminal imprisonment

A 20-year-old individual was presented on Friday to an investigating judge who put him under examination for intentional homicide.

The suspect was arrested Wednesday after being identified by investigators.

"He faces up to 30 years of criminal imprisonment and was remanded in custody," said the prosecutor in a statement.

In this neighborhood plagued by the many drug trafficking, this murder had caused a stir at the time.
