Shooting in Toulouse neighborhood

A week has passed without a shooting in the working-class neighborhoods of Toulouse, including Empalot, Mirail, and its sub-neighborhoods Reynerie, Bagatelle, Faourette, and Bellefontaine.

Latest incident in Grand Mirail

Following two victims in the Empalot neighborhood last week, it is once again the Grand Mirail where gunfire was heard. During the night of Saturday to Sunday, around 4 a.m., gunshots were heard at a site described as a drug dealing point.

Emergency response and investigation

On site, emergency services and the police assessed the extent of this new shooting against the background of a very profitable drug trafficking business. A man was injured, hit by a bullet in the foot.

Witness accounts and suspects

According to witnesses cited by the investigators, it was a team of two or three men who carried out this new attack and then fled on electric scooters. An investigation has been opened.
