The fuel crisis has really made some drivers lose their heads, to the point of coming to blows and more. This is how a man was stabbed in Haute-Savoie.
For several days, it’s literally a disaster to get some gasoline. Indeed, service stations are taken by storm and endless queues form in an attempt to fill up. The reason ? The strike movement started ten days ago in several French refineries at the initiative of the CGT for the increase in wages. A situation that continues to significantly impact the production of diesel and gasoline in the country, and which therefore creates a shortage of fuels that drives some motorists crazy.
And that’s an understatement, since last Wednesday, October 5, while the queue was very long at a gas station in Saint-Julien-en-Genevois, in Haute Savoie, a man in a car overtook another motorist. The latter, exasperated, then gets out of his car and thus begins an altercation which will end with stab wounds given to the man who doubled the line, under the eyes of his children, seated in the back of the car, as revealed by France Blue.
The rescued victim
The assailant then fled but was quickly caught by the gendarmes. Placed in police custody, then in pre-trial detention, he admitted having stabbed the man six times who tried to pass in front of everyone at the gas station. Following the assault, the victim was immediately rushed to hospital and was able to be saved. According The Dauphinehis vital prognosis is no longer engaged.
always according to France Bluean investigation for “attempted murder” was opened and was entrusted to the gendarmerie of Saint-Julien-en-Genevois.
