A 72-year-old man was brutally attacked on the Prophets beach in Marseille, on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday.

The septuagenarian, who lives in a room on the beach, was hit with a shovel for an as yet unknown reason.

The 24-year-old suspect, who was in a daze according to

La Provence

, dealt him many blows.

Assessment: four invoices on the whole body and 90 days of ITT delivered by the doctors of Timone.

The victim was found unconscious on the beach and was rushed to hospital.

The investigators did not have too much difficulty in finding the attacker and his accomplice since they had filmed the septuagenarian dying to broadcast the scene on Snapchat.

The first was imprisoned pending trial on Tuesday, in immediate appearance.

The second was placed under judicial supervision and will also appear on Tuesday for "violence with a weapon in a meeting" and "dissemination of the recording of images relating to the commission of a willful attack on the integrity of the person" .
