What prompted the military to fire a gun at a driver who tried to pass him? A machismo, pure stupidity or something else? The court opened the case that looks like a modern-day western. Without a bad western hero. Story …
She wanted to exceed drive. Simply. He did not accept. While others grumpy, macho zest driving, would “merely” an insult or an inappropriate gesture, the military 18 years training in Istres (Bouches-du-Rhone) flatly unsheathed a weapon and pulled the trigger.
“It was an alarm gun,” says Nicolas Septe, public prosecutor. The driver, a woman in her forties, was not injured but very shocked by the behavior and aggressiveness of this individual.
The incident took place Saturday in Cahors, in road level Lalbenque, near the store “Everything for the packaging.” Yesterday, the criminal court of Cahors, where it was to be judged in the context of the procedure for summary trial, the military was pale.
No lawyer at the hearing, he will have to wait until September 1 to prepare his defense and to know his fate. Nelly Emin, presiding judge, ordered his detention in the remand home Montauban, that because of the seriousness of the offenses alleged against him. “I would never have done that. I freaked out, “said he only said.
At the time of passing, the two cars were traveling at normal speed.
The driver decided to overtake the vehicle the young man. He then immediately veered to the left of the road …
Gunshot, stroke
“The driver honks and makes flashing light to indicate the maneuver, then attempts exceeded again, “reports the prosecutor.
It is at this point that the situation is complicated and goes wrong.
The young soldier seized a bag contained in a gun, the driver takes aim and shoot! A shot rang out.
Nicolas Septe evokes “a rush of blood” from the military who did not support the attitude of the driver.
These facts have led to two days of total incapacity (ITT) for the victim of the young man. That day, it would go to a garage to change the tires of his vehicle. His day and his life took a strange turn.
Family holidays in prison
Auditions military implicated in this case will no doubt be peeled and commented on by his lawyer, September 1 at his trial. In one of them, he said he had “felt assaulted by the driver who wanted to overtake.” He will have to explain this unexpected argument, which seems inappropriate to the situation described. The military claims to have shot in the air, while the victim was clear to investigators that triggered the gun at him. Yesterday, at the hearing, the defendant appeared very annoyed before returning to prison. The soldier, who was on holiday with his parents in the Lot could have done to stop this prison
Net. 1
September & gt; judgment. So in less than a month that the case will be tried in Cahors. In the meantime, the military will have to wait in jail.
