The Bobigny public prosecutor’s office said on Thursday that a 24-year-old man suspected of stabbing a 74-year-old man in the back last Saturday in La Courneuve (Saint-Saint-Denis) has been jailed. AFP: The suspect, who was arrested on Monday and charged with murder and attempted murder on Wednesday, has been detained, the source said.
The victim was stabbed in the back at around 16:30 on Saturday, causing a deep wound, a police source told AFP. Despite the intervention of emergency workers, he died from his injuries. The events took place at one of the entrances of the Georges-Valbon departmental park, the third largest park in Ile-de-France.
The prosecution informed that yesterday the suspect had already injured another person using the same method of attack with a knife. A Romanian national, he was subjected to the obligation to leave French territory (OQTF) in September, which was punishable by death. “After his release from prison, he was taken back to Romania“, this source clarified. The investigation entrusted to the judicial police of the department is now continuing under the auspices of the investigating judge.
