An investigation was opened after the broadcast of a video showing a motorist having fun grabbing and dragging two pedestrians until they fell, Sunday in Noisy-le-Sec (Seine-Saint-Denis), a we learned Monday from police sources. “An investigation was immediately initiated to find the perpetrators of this gratuitous attack,” tweeted the Paris police headquarters, indicating that it resulted from multiple reports of Internet users on Pharos, a platform created in 2009 to report content and behavior illicit online.

A video captioned “laughter of the evening”
The amateur video, subtitled “laughter of the evening”, joins two extracts which each last a few seconds. The passenger films the driver who grabs a man while continuing to drive, which forces the victim to run, until he falls to the ground. Then it’s another man’s turn to suffer the same fate. “Wallah, you’re going to run!” The motorist asks him. “Stop your bullshit!”, “Stop I’m going to fall!”, Begged the pedestrian, held back by the hand.
The scenes provoke the hilarity of the occupants of the vehicle. One of the victims, in her sixties, lodged a complaint for these facts which took place early Sunday morning, said a police source. The man was slightly injured while sprawling on the road, and suffers from bruises on the head and on the body, she said. The authors were actively sought on Monday.
