Tuesday in Haute-Savoie, a 17-year-old teenager was arrested following sexually assaulting at least eight women and then a gendarme, which led to him being placed in police custody.
It had obviously been several months since this young boy raged between the communes of Thyez and Marignier, in Haute-Savoie. On Tuesday August 16, a 17-year-old boy suspected of assaulting at least eight women was arrested and placed in jailreport our colleagues from France Bleu Pays de Savoie.
By bike, on a cycle path, he touched walkers in Haute-Savoie
The individual was acting by bike, on a bike path. His modus operandi did not change: he took advantage of the surprise effect to touch the buttocks and breasts of walkers, and this without ever falling off his two-wheeler. Since last June, eight women have filed complaints, and it is possible that the number of actual victims is much higher.
A gendarme who came to apprehend him who was targeted
On Tuesday, gendarmes went, in civilian clothes, to the famous cycle path in order to apprehend their individual. What they possibly did not expect is that the latter reappeared to commit a new attack on a military woman who was part of the device.
5 years in prison and 75,000 euros fine incurred
The minor was arrested and taken into custody. Before it was lifted, he apologized. The Bonneville prosecution called in particular for the seizure of the hardware of the defendant. The latter faces five years in prison and a fine of 75,000 euros. If other women have been victims of the actions of this teenager, they are invited to report to the community of brigades of Marignier-Saint-Jeoire.
