On September 9, a 28-year-old driver, driving at high speed, fled the scene. The driver hit the municipal police vehicle in Aigues-Mortes.
The driver who hit the municipal police car in Aigues-Mortes, this Monday evening, should be tried in an immediate appearance, this Thursday, September 12.
This Monday evening, in Saint-Gilles, the municipal police tried to stop a driver who was driving at high speed. Chased for 35 km by the police, the driver hit a vehicle of the municipal police of Aigues-Mortes, near the cemetery. Three municipal police officers were slightly injured. The driver was arrested and taken into custody at the gendarmerie. According to our information, a little cocaine was discovered in his car.
The suspect was brought before the Nîmes public prosecutor's office this Wednesday. Initially, the prosecution had planned an appearance on prior admission of guilt (a procedure a little faster than an immediate appearance).
According to our information, the judge who was then to approve the sentence noted that some of the civil parties had not been cited in this procedure. The case was therefore postponed until this Thursday, to this immediate appearance hearing.
"To err is human,declared, this Wednesday evening, Me Jean-François Corral who represents some of the injured police officers, civil parties. But by dint of favoring quick and light procedures, we end up forgetting victims. This decision could therefore not be approved."
