A sunny, warm, pleasant day ... The first deputy of Ostwald, a city close to Strasbourg, was enjoying his Sunday when he was the victim of a physical assault.
In the middle of a walk.
“We were walking with my wife rue de Lingolsheim when we came across a badly parked vehicle.
We could no longer pass on the sidewalk and since I am preparing an article on this subject in the next municipal bulletin, I took a photo of the car, ”recalls Jean Wechsler for

.
The story could have ended there, except that it had a painful twist.
“The owner of the vehicle caught up with me and asked me why I had done that, continues the elected official.
I explained it calmly while introducing myself.
I thought it was over… ”But the discussion barely over, he received a violent head butt.
“My nose was bleeding and he left quietly in the garden of the house.

Since then, the deputy, 54 years old, has made note of his injuries ("A slightly crushed nose, perhaps a fracture but above all a big migraine"), lodged a complaint and waits for the forty-something responsible for his ailments to explain himself. .

, the police did not confirm that the perpetrator was arrested.
"But we asked my wife to go and testify," says Jean Wechsler, not at all cooled by this experience.
“It comforts me in my elected role.
I will continue to warn in a preventive way ... but perhaps by putting more distance.
