• Nearly 70 cases of mysterious bites have been recorded in Brittany in recent weeks.

  • The victims evoke nausea effects or even dizziness and discomfort after being stung in a discotheque or during concerts.

  • None of the analyzes carried out by the investigators revealed any known toxic substance such as GHB for example.

The mystery continues.

Neither in Rennes nor in Nantes, the investigators were unable to find an explanation for the mysterious phenomenon of injections perpetrated in discotheques.

No more than in Grenoble before, for that matter.

This Thursday, the Attorney General of the Rennes Court of Appeal made the same conclusions as his counterpart in Isère.

“The results of these biological analyzes are all negative, both for GHB and for other toxic substances,” the magistrate said in a press release.

In the five departments of historic Brittany for which the Court of Appeal is competent, 79 cases of these strange bites have been recorded: 43 in Nantes, 15 in Rennes, 4 in Vannes and Saint-Malo and one in Brest, Saint-Malo. Nazaire and Lorient.

“In support of the complaints received, investigations, in particular analysis and expertise, have been carried out”.

No results, no explanation.

Some people have been hospitalized

“The reason for these acts, without associated compensation, theft or corollary violence, is not identified”.

"It was very painful, it started from the thigh and went up to the sciatic nerve", testified recently Noémie, a victim.

After these bites, several people suffered from discomfort, nausea, hot flashes or loss of balance.

Some have been hospitalized.

In an attempt to advance the investigations, the police and gendarmes will now operate at the regional or even zonal level (twenty departments in the West).

The police invite potential victims "to make themselves known as soon as possible after the commission of the facts" to the gendarmes, police or hospitals, in order to make rapid findings.

To date, no syringe has been found and no suspect has been identified on the surveillance cameras of the establishments.
