Trap.
Last Tuesday, around 11 p.m., in Denain, in the North, a sexagenarian went to an appointment fixed on a gay dating site.
The latter was not suspicious despite the time which greatly exceeded the limit set for the curfew.
Arrived at the meeting place at the wheel of his car, the 60-year-old man found himself facing a 16-year-old minor.
It was not clarified whether the 60-year-old knew the age of the person he was due to meet.
Still, the teenager violently jostled the motorist, causing him to fall to the ground.
He took the opportunity to steal the keys to his vehicle before fleeing on board.
The teenager was quickly arrested
The 60-year-old immediately contacted the police.
Armed with the description of the car, the license plate and the report of the theft, the police quickly found the teenager.
He was taken into custody.
At the end, the young man, already known to the police, was brought before a magistrate in charge of minors on Friday.
It was not clear whether he was tried for immediate appearance or whether he was summoned at a later date.
