The investigation opened after the paintball shots on Monday evening, in order to spray paint the facade of the Rhône prefecture, advanced on Wednesday afternoon. As indicated Progress, three men were arrested and placed in police custody in the premises of the departmental security, in Lyon. They are suspected of having participated in the paintball shootings, which were claimed by the “Daltons” collective.
Around 10 p.m. Monday, four individuals wearing the yellow and black suit of the “Daltons” had indeed sprayed paint on part of the prefecture, which they mistakenly thought were the private apartments of the prefect Pascal Mailhos. They hold him responsible for the incarceration of their leader Many GT, released from his detention at the Lyon-Corbas remand center on Monday.
While investigations are underway to determine whether the three suspects participated in the action against the Rhône prefecture, the “Daltons” assured Thursday on their Instagram account that the investigators “did not take the right people “.
