A fatal accident during a wild rodeo.

The victim is not a participant but a spectator.

The 32-year-old biker who killed a 20-year-old woman by hitting her while crossing the street has been indicted, the Amiens prosecutor's office said.

The facts took place on the night of July 16 to 17 in Glisy, a town in the Somme.

The man lost control of his motorcycle and mowed down the young spectator, who died shortly after from her injuries.

The state of health of the biker does not allow his imprisonment

“The investigation did not reveal any alcohol or narcotics consumption on the part of the respondent.

On the other hand, it is proven that he traveled at a very high speed on the rear wheel before hitting the victim, ”Amiens prosecutor Alexandre de Bosschère said in a statement.

Referred Wednesday, the man, whose criminal record is clean, was indicted and placed under judicial supervision.

“The prosecution did not request a remand in custody.

Victim of multiple fractures, the indicted has a state of health that does not currently allow his imprisonment, ”said the same source.

The prosecution requested the opening of a judicial investigation "by targeting acts of manslaughter by manifestly deliberate violation of a particular obligation of caution by the driver of a vehicle and participation in a motorized rodeo".

The investigation to identify the organizers of the event is continuing.
