Five months after the death of Socayna, 24, killed in her room in Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône) by a stray bullet, a 16-year-old minor, suspected of being the author of the fatal shot, has just been arrested and indicted for murder. He is known to the police. On September 10, 2023 in Marseille, two men on a motorcycle fired in bursts towards a pharmacy then into the air. Intimidation shots in the context of drug trafficking, which ricochet off the walls of a building. One of the bullets pierces the facade and kills Socayna, a student who was working on her computer.
