The police officer placed in police custody after the shooting death of a young man on Tuesday during a check in Neuville-en-Ferrain (North) was indicted on Wednesday for “violence leading to the death without intention of the give “, says his lawyer. ” The facts are materially recognized, but justified by what constitutes a cause of criminal irresponsibility: self-defense, which at this stage must still be supported by acts of investigation, “says Mr. Manon Dugast, confirming information from La Voix du Nord. The Lille prosecutor confirmed that she had requested the indictment for this qualification. To the regional media, the lawyer explains that her client is an upset man. “It’s obviously not what he wanted, he didn’t go into this profession to shoot people. He is an experienced police officer, who has no disciplinary history to his credit. A judicial inquiry has been opened to determine as precisely as possible the circumstances of the death of the young man. According to the Lille prosecutor’s office, “the forensic conclusions are compatible with the first elements of the investigation which will be supplemented by ballistic investigations. The victim was mortally wounded by a single shot in the ribs, on the left side. ยป
