So what happened this Sunday on the side of Jemappes? A large police force has indeed been deployed near the park, which has not failed to arouse some concerns on the side of the residents, who have witnessed the comings and goings of the police. According to Sudpresse, shots were fired by an individual who came out armed from his home.
This Sunday followingnoon, the Mons prosecutor’s office confirmed that four people were arrested, without saying more regarding the facts. “The circumstances remain unknown”, specifies the deputy prosecutor. “Those arrested have not yet been interviewed. The file must be the subject of various duties. There is nothing more to add at this stage.” We always know that no one was injured.
Is it an altercation that would have escalated? A settling of scores? Impossible to say at the time of writing these lines. The investigation must continue.
