A 14-year-old boy has been indicted for complicity in attempted homicide after the stabbing on Friday of a schoolboy in Sarcelles, in Val-d'Oise, we learned on Tuesday from the Pontoise parquet floor.

The minor was placed under judicial supervision, added the prosecution.

Another minor arrested in connection with this case was placed under the status of assisted witness, said this source.

Around 5:30 p.m. Friday, on leaving his establishment in Sarcelles, a 13-year-old schoolboy was stabbed in the abdomen, according to a police source.

Transported to the Necker hospital, his days were not in danger.

A brawl against a background of inter-district rivalry?

A 4th grader, he arrived at the college shortly after the start of the school year, after being the victim of an attack in his previous establishment, according to a source close to the investigation.

"The perpetrators fled when a sports teacher arrived on the scene," said another police source.

The attackers came in gangs, some preventing the victim from fleeing, according to the first elements of the investigation.

The hypothesis of a brawl against a backdrop of inter-neighbourhood rivalry is favored at this stage of the investigation.

The victim had been assaulted a few months ago in Stains, a town in Seine-Saint-Denis near Sarcelles.

She had taken revenge by hitting in turn one of her attackers who came from the Sablons district in Sarcelles, detailed the source close to the investigation,

In addition, in recent weeks, two teenagers were killed during fights between rival gangs in the 17th arrondissement of Paris on November 11, and in Coignières (Yvelines) on November 27.
