The circumstances are still under investigation, but the incident occurred Monday morning in a building on Avenue Franklin Roosevelt. The East Flanders prosecutor’s office had previously indicated that it was a shooting during a search in a dwelling.
“During this intervention, one or more shots were fired and one person was hit. The man died on the spot. The prosecution opened an investigation and requisitioned an investigating judge, a forensic doctor, a weapons expert and the laboratory. They all went there, ”we learned.
The prosecution can now confirm that the search by the federal judicial police took place in the context of a narcotics case. “The man, the 44-year-old occupant and suspect in the drug case, allegedly pointed a gun at police in his home. That’s when the shooting took place. Police attempted to resuscitate the individual and notified emergency services, but help arrived too late,” the prosecutor’s office said.
