In France, an 11-year-old girl was shot dead by a neighbor in Finistère, Brittany. The little girl’s father was seriously injured. This was announced by the prosecutor of Rennes in the north of the country. Just a few days ago, another violent incident shocked the French: the knife attack on four children in a park in Annecy, who fortunately survived the attack by a 31-year-old despite their serious injuries.
Killed by the neighbor The little girl was in the garden of her home in Plonevez-du-Faou (Finistère) when she was shot dead on the evening of June 10. “The gendarmes discovered the lifeless body of an 11-year-old girl. The child’s father was also found seriously injured and in mortal danger,” said Quimper prosecutor Carine Halley, adding that the neighbor and his wife were taken into custody.
land dispute According to initial information collected by the gendarmes on site, there had been a dispute between the families involved in the affair for years over a property adjacent to their property. The attacker, a 71-year-old Dutch national, is said to have opened fire on neighbors who were outside their home. The man then went back to his house with his wife. After a little over an hour, the couple gave up and were arrested: they face charges of voluntary murder of a minor and attempted murder. This was reported by the French newspaper Le Figaro.
