Officials want to practice control to ensure that everything is in order. at the sight of the police vehicle, the suspect vehicle, in which four men were seated, fled and disappeared.
The police set off to find him. Suddenly, the vehicle appears in front of them. surprisingly, the car suddenly stops, possibly breaking down, a few meters from the crew.
The police approach the car and check the driver. This one is alcoholic. As the officers prepare to arrest him, the three other passengers oppose his arrest. The tone rises, insults and threats fuse.
Quickly, the police are taken to task. An official receives a blow to the wrist. His colleagues are also struck. In the absence of reinforcements, the agents called for the assistance of the gendarmes of the surveillance and intervention platoon (PSIG) of the Alès company.
41 days of ITT for the policewoman
The four individuals are finally subdued and taken into custody. at the end of the intervention, the policewoman went to the hospital of Alès where the X-ray revealed a fracture of the radius.
