The details surrounding a tragic incident in Saône-et-Loire are gradually emerging. A motorist involved in a collision that resulted in the death of a cyclist has tested positive for cocaine, according to a source familiar with the case. The prosecutor's office in Mâcon has been informed but has not yet provided a formal response. The incident occurred on Thursday afternoon when a 33-year-old woman was trying out her new bicycle with two of her three children, aged 8 and 10, near her family home in Salornay-sur-Guye. She was struck by a vehicle and died at the scene. According to Anne-Lise Furstoss, the prosecutor of the Republic in Mâcon, the motorist was driving at "an excessive speed." The gendarmerie reported that the cyclist was violently thrown from the impact and suffered severe injuries, including the loss of one of her arms. Her husband, who witnessed the accident, approached the driver, who had stopped nearby, and struck him multiple times with a utility knife. The injured motorist was transported by helicopter to the Dijon University Hospital. While his life was not in immediate danger, he remained hospitalized on Friday for a surgical procedure. The prosecutor's office in Mâcon has launched two separate investigations: one for road homicide and another for the use of a weapon in an act of violence. The case continues to unfold as authorities gather more information and determine the full extent of the legal consequences.
