Ten months, five of which are suspended for one, six months closed for the other.
Monday, two young men of 21 years were sentenced to prison terms by the criminal court of La Roche-sur-Yon (Vendée) after the robbery of a quad, at the threat of a weapon.
The scene, "worthy of an action film", according to the prosecutor, took place in November 2018 in La Roche-sur-Yon, reports the newspaper
Ouest-France
.
That afternoon, a man sits on his quad and waits at a red light.
Three cars storm up and surround it.
Two men, one of whom is armed with a pistol, get out and approach to threaten the pilot.
One of them gets on the handlebars and flees with his victim, forced to climb behind.
It is she who will warn the police, after being abandoned a little further.
During the hearing, the defendants, already known to the courts, in particular for theft and violence, tried to minimize the facts.
According to them, they did not want to steal the vehicle… but only to try it.
