Friday evening, around 7 p.m., the actor Pierre Palmade was guilty of a serious road accident in Seine-et-Marne. The comedian’s home, which tested positive for cocaine on Saturday, was searched on Sunday while several people are still in serious condition following the collision.
Nearly 48 hours after the road accident caused by comedian Pierre Palmade in Seine-et-Marne, a six-year-old boy is still between life and death. Friday evening, the child was violently ejected from the vehicle hit head-on by the Peugeot 3008 driven by the comedian. Still in a coma, he suffers from a head wound, bruises and his vital prognosis is still engaged. His 40-year-old father, driving the car, is also still hospitalized but his life is no longer in danger. As a reminder, a 27-year-old woman who is six months pregnant, the driver’s sister-in-law, was also injured in this collision. Still hospitalized, she lost the baby she was carrying according to the Melun prosecutor.
Pierre Palmade is still in intensive care.
The actor should be taken into custody
This Sunday, the home of Pierre Palmade was searched in Cély-en-Bière in Seine-et-Marne, as part of the investigation for manslaughter of which he is the subject. The investigations lasted more than three hours after which the police came out with several bags in their hands. Analyzes are currently underway. According to sources familiar with the matter, the actor should be placed in police custody. His interrogation will take place either in a medico-judicial unit where he will be transferred within a week, or in the hospital, in his room, under police surveillance.
Tested positive for cocaine and substitute drugs when he arrived at the hospital on Friday evening, investigators are trying to find out where the drugs came from and who supplied him. And the suspicions are for the moment on the two men who fled shortly after the accident. They were filmed by witnesses getting out of Pierre Palmade’s car and leaving the scene on foot. The technical elements recovered at the time of the search should make it possible to identify them. The police will also analyze the images from the city’s surveillance cameras around the artist’s home and near the scene of the accident to retrace their route. As it stands, if the aggravating circumstances are accepted, Pierre Palmade risks up to ten years in prison and a fine of 150,000 euros.
The police still have to answer questions that remain unanswered for the time being: what happened in Pierre Palmade’s car? Why did his two passengers flee on foot after the collision? Was there a technical malfunction on the vehicle? So many elements firmly expected to clarify the circumstances of the accident.
