An investigation for "attempted murder" and "armed robbery" was entrusted to the judicial police of Meaux (Seine-et-Marne) after a failed robbery on Tuesday evening.
Several individuals tried in vain to seize the recipe for a bar-tabac in Bailly-Romainvilliers (Seine-et-Marne).
One of the employees of the establishment was then violently struck by the thieves' car, tells

.
The 37-year-old was seriously injured in the collision.
After the shock, the criminals' car would have reversed to drive again on the thirty-something.
The employee was taken to hospital.
His vital prognosis was initially compromised but his state of health has since improved.
The failed robbery took place in front of the bank where the employees deposited the money from the business at an automatic kiosk.

The suspects were reportedly not carrying firearms, but a tear gas canister was seen in their possession.
The police investigations will have to clarify the reasons which pushed the thieves to overthrow one of their victims at a place located several hundred meters from the place where their robbery had just failed.
