A police officer shot the driver of a motocross who refused to comply during a check in Noisiel, in Seine-et-Marne, on Saturday.
Le Parisien
reports that on Saturday, around 4 p.m., police officers from the BAC (anti-crime brigade) who were patrolling in Champs-sur-Marne, had spotted this motocross without a license plate.
They decide to control the machine but its driver flees.
The police lost sight of him but found him, almost by chance, following their patrol, at the Quatre-Pavés de Noisiel roundabout.
Actually wanting to control the driver this time, the police get out of their car but he allegedly refused to stop and ran into one of the police.
He then used his weapon to shoot him, feeling threatened.
The driver of the motocross received the only bullet fired in the arm, and is stopped.
The days of the 22-year-old man, coming from Villiers-sur-Morin, are not in danger.
However, he was operated on.
He is known to the police.
Two investigations were opened for the refusal to comply and on the use of the weapon.
