While Nantes was again the scene of gunshots, Sunday evening with a 25-year-old young man, injured in the legs by pellets, Didier Martin, the prefect of Loire-Atlantique appeals to the “responsibility of consumers of narcotic products”. For the prefect of Loire-Atlantique, drug users “go accomplices of everything that happens around the deal points, including these shootings”.
“Up to several tens of thousands of euros in turnover per day”
Since July 29, in Nantes, there have been, for example, five gunshot wounds in the Bellevue district. According to the prefect of Loire-Atlantique: “Everything suggests that these are turf wars between drug dealers. Important networks have been dismantled by the police in recent months, in Dervallières, Bellevue and in other Nantes districts.. The prefect talks about “war of power and money”. According to Didier Martin, a deal point can represent “sometimes several thousand, even tens of thousands of euros in turnover per day”.
