a leisure park burned for the third time since April, a suspect actively sought

The Gallic village of Pleumeur-Bodou (Côtes-d’Armor) was targeted on Wednesday May 29 by a third arson in less than two months, reports France Bleu Breizh Izel. The solidarity leisure park was completely destroyed, after a first fire in mid-April, then another in mid-May. The first had destroyed ten buildings, the second a creperie on the site.

A man has been actively sought for a month and a half, suspected of having caused these fires. This is a man who was accommodated free of charge on the site during its winter closure, but who is “extremely difficult to locate” because “he lives on the margins of civil society, has no means of payment, no vehicle, no telephone line”said the Saint-Brieuc public prosecutor in a press release on Wednesday.

“The investigators of the Lannion company research brigade are naturally concerned about this new fire of voluntary origin,” according to the prosecution.

The Gallic Village of Pleumeur-Bodou usually employs seven employees, five of whom work year-round, and receives 65,000 visitors per year. For 30 years, the team has been carrying out solidarity actions in Africa, notably by building schools in northern Togo.
