A hot topic on both sides of the Pyrenees.
This weekend, the Catalan media are echoing a thorny case. Indeed, as he travels on theAP-7 highwaywhich connects theSpain to the Francein the area of vandals south of Tarragona, a man tries to escape the control of the Mossos d’Esquadra – the Catalan police – while driving a stolen car.
“Self-defense”
A car chase is then engaged. Until the fugitive falls on a second Mossos barrage. There, he would have tried to turn around but would have found himself facing the police who were pursuing him, tell our colleagues from 324.
Sandwiched, he would have rushed on his pursuers. One of the police officers then used his weapon to fire two bullets: a first which hit the engine, then a second which hit the fugitive in the head. The man was taken to hospital.
The Mossos, for their part, plead “self-defense”. The Mossos criminal cell as well as internal affairs have taken up the case.
