The horror, Sunday evening around 6 p.m., in Marchienne-au-Pont to the west of Charleroi. AB, 22, allegedly killed his mother and sister, before grabbing a pellet gun and shooting his father. He then allegedly fled: the police caught him in La Louvière-Sud, where he apparently hoped to take a taxi following getting off the train.
The horror in Marchienne-au-Pont: a 22-year-old man kills his mother and brother, then shoots his father
We are on rue de Forêt. In this small neighborhood where everyone knows each other, there is excitement: Freddy and Marie-Claire knew the family well, who had lived there for 25 years. And they are in shock: “yesterday morning, I once more came across the parents who were taking the car, probably to go to the market. The father had called me recently because he wanted to buy a car and asked me consel”, the neighbor told us. They were very good people, discreet but always ready to help. “Even the kid in question, he was polite, well-mannered,” he adds. “Jovial even,” adds the neighbor. “We saw him born and raised in this street, what a horror! It was a family of 5, with three children but the oldest is in a household. We called her last night when we saw the ambulances, the SMUR, arrive and the police…”

The house, at 20, is now sealed. Behind the police tapes and closed shutters, there is apparently a scene witnessing incredible barbarity. However, usually, the worst that happens in the neighborhood depending on the neighborhood is a few cars that use the street despite the sign “except residents”, and illegal dumping near the main road (rue de Châtelet ). But not that, and certainly not this family which – on the surface – was quiet and uneventful.
