Ten months after the events of rare violence, the investigation led to the arrest of a suspect.
A 20-year-old homeless man was arrested on Tuesday in Lyon for a series of assaults committed on the night of July 4 on the quais de la Pêcherie in the 1st arrondissement.
That evening, the young man allegedly tried to forcefully kiss a young woman he had just passed and whom he did not know.
The latter was spending the evening with two friends.
Surprised, she struggled, say the investigators.
One of the boys who accompanied him intervened to scare the attacker away.
Struck on the thighs, neck, temples, pediment, chin ...
The suspect returned to the scene, however, armed with a knife.
He then hit the young woman on the chin while kicking her.
Then he began to stab his two friends in the neck, temple, forehead and thighs, specifies the Sûreté du Rhône.
Before running away and stealing their belongings, he also threw glass bottles at them.
The young woman, who suffered 7 days of ITT and her two friends filed a complaint.
The suspect they had named during the presentation of a photographic album, was finally arrested ten months later thanks to another investigation.
He was arrested during a theft at the trailer.
Placed in custody, then imprisoned, he was to be tried this Thursday in immediate appearance.
