This autopsy should be performed on Tuesday, after a scan scheduled for Monday afternoon. The identification will confirm whether it is the owner of the vehicle, a woman residing in Saint Malo. The gendarmes carried out observations on the spot to find out the reasons for the death. “The vehicle was not damaged. The first investigations could point towards a suicide ”, continues the magistrate.
