The Toulouse public prosecutor's office has opened an investigation for "research into the causes of death" after the discovery, Wednesday evening, of a body in the Brienne canal.
It was a passer-by who sounded the alert, around 6 p.m.
The man was drafted at n ° 50 of the alley of Barcelona.
From a police source, he seems to be "between forty and fifty years old" but the police were still trying to identify him this Thursday using DNA samples and papillary surveys.
Accidental fall, suicide, or intervention by a third party?
The prosecution has requested an autopsy which will perhaps allow the police of the Urban Security of the Right Bank, in charge of the case, to favor a track.
