The partially charred body of a man was found shortly before 7 a.m. this Tuesday in a burned car in Saint-Mitre-les-Remparts, a town located about forty kilometers west of Marseille, we learned 20 minutes from a police source, confirming initial information fromNews17. The body had bullet holes.
It was the firefighters, dispatched to the scene for a brush fire, who made the sinister discovery. The judicial police have been seized of the investigation. This affair, which closely resembles a “barbecue”, a technique used by Marseille drug traffickers to settle their scores, comes in an already heavy context, with the death of a young 24-year-old woman, who took Sunday evening, while she was in her room, a “lost bullet”.
Monday evening, a man in his fifties was shot dead in the 16th arrondissement of Marseille. Traveling this Tuesday morning in the Marseille city, Gérald Darmanin, the Minister of the Interior, showed himself determined “to win the battle against drugs”.
