A 17-year-old Tunisian young man managed to escape from a prison in Haute-Savoie in the east of France yesterday.
Incarcerated a few weeks ago for armed robbery, the young person considered “quite dangerous” is highly sought after by local authorities and the police.
“This occurred around 3.30 p.m. when returning to the remand center. He had just been examined in a hospital center and had nothing. He took advantage of the opening of the sliding door of the penitentiary vehicle so that the driver settled in order to flee, “said the public prosecutor Line Bonnet, quoted by the AFP agency.
The same source explains that an important research device has been deployed and a call for witnesses on the social networks launched. Forty gendarmes are mobilized in these operations, helped “from a thermal vision drone and sniff dogs”.
