A man, who was trying to flee the police, was fatally knocked down on the Rennes ring road in Ille-et-Vilaine on Wednesday January 3 in the evening, franceinfo learned on Thursday January 4 from a police source.
Around 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in Cesson-Sévigné, a woman harassed by her ex-partner activated her serious phone. This telephone has a pre-programmed key connected to a constantly open assistance service. This is a protection system for people threatened by their former spouse.
The police went to the scene and tried to control the individual wearing an anti-reconciliation bracelet. The authorities notably used a taser but he still managed to escape. He finally died a few moments later, hit by a car on the ring road that he was trying to cross on foot.
