Large deployment of police this Friday evening, Place Saint-Pierre in Wasmes. A man was beaten with a machete. He had yet taken refuge in a store! A bone in the arm was visible, its deep wounds… The police arrested suspects.

This Saturday morning, the pharmacist arrived at the establishment where she provides a replacement. What was the shock when she discovered impressive traces of blood in front of her sign, as well as a towel filled with blood too. Neither one nor two, the pharmacist telephoned the police who were already aware, and who warned her that an attempted murder had taken place the evening before.
