Haute-Garonne four miners backwards scooter on the ring road

Saturday afternoon in the Ramonville-Saint-Agne sector, in Haute-Garonne, the gendarmes surprised four miners riding a scooter and the wrong way on the ring road. The youngest offender, 6, was released immediately.

The scene, to say the least terrifying, was observed on Saturday afternoon in the Ramonville-Saint-Agne sector, commune of Haute-Garonne. La Dépêche du Midi reports that it was around 4.30 p.m. when the gendarmes saw four young people, one much more than the others, on a scooter. As the soldiers approached to ask the driver for the two-wheeler's papers, the driver quickly started to flee the authorities.

Four on a scooter, children miss having an accident

The youngster at the controls of the scooter and his three passengers then took the direction of the device, which they took in the wrong direction. On the side of the gendarmes, a helicopter and a patrol of the gendarmerie surveillance and intervention platoon (PSIG) were mobilized. A Toulousain man recounts that this chase almost made him make victims behind his wheel: “I failed to crash into this scooter, where four children were, then the gendarmerie cars which rolled on the stop tape of 'emergency".

The youngest, aged 6, released without delay

The fugitives were finally caught before they could take the highway not far from Balma. The young people happen to be all minors. The band cadet, 6, was released immediately. As for the other three, aged 13, 14 and 15, they remained in the hands of the gendarmes in order to be heard.


TRENDNG: Meurthe-et-Moselle: its passenger is thrown from the car, he leaves it on the road

On September 29, 201, in Meurthe-et-Moselle, an alcoholic woman was thrown from a car where she was a passenger. The driver was prosecuted last Thursday for "failure to assist a person in danger".

The facts date back to Sunday September 29 in the evening and occurred on the RD 137, between Moutiers-Haut and Briey (Meurthe-et-Moselle). We know that a man was driving a car and a woman was by his side. Republican Lorrain reports that the two of them were drunk and that a passenger with a blood alcohol level of 2.58 g will even be found.

At one point, the passenger was out of the vehicle, and the investigation could not determine whether she had fallen or been pushed. In all cases, the driver did not react and therefore continued on his way, leaving this woman on the road. Another motorist noticed it in time, and he said there was no one else around. The firefighters, whose barracks were nearby, came to assist the victim. Caroline Njoya, the deputy public prosecutor, said about her that "she was in a fairly critical condition".

The defendant was already known to justice

On Thursday, neither the victim nor the accused was at the Briey Criminal Court where this case was tried. The second was prosecuted there for “failure to assist a person in danger”. And it was not the first time that this 40-year-old man had run into trouble with the law. A little over a month ago now, an arrest warrant had been issued against him after a new conviction, a firm year for theft and fraud. For the facts of September 29, he was sentenced to eight months in prison, one month longer than the deputy had requested.
