It was behind closed doors of an apartment, located on Place Albert-1er in the Beaux-Arts district of Montpellier, that a 25-year-old young man was stabbed this Saturday, May 28, around 7 a.m. in the morning.
According to the first investigations, carried out by investigators from the Departmental Security, the tragedy took place in the presence of three people, qualified as good acquaintances. In this case, the victim, her attacker and a young woman present at the time of the facts.
Futile motif
For a seemingly trivial reason, the situation would have degenerated. The tone is said to have risen between the two men and one of them grabbed a knife with which he struck several blade blows at his opponent, seriously injuring him in the abdomen.
The victim, conscious when help arrived, was taken care of by the firefighters of Sdis 34 before being transported by emergency workers from Smur 34 to the Lapeyronie hospital center. Although admitted to intensive care in the anesthesia-resuscitation department, her vital prognosis is not at stake.
Ongoing investigation
As for the perpetrator of the attack, also in his twenties, he was immediately apprehended by the police services without the slightest opposition and was placed in police custody for questioning at the Hôtel de police. The investigation is continuing to determine the circumstances of this tragedy which could have had tragic consequences.
