The two 20-year-old drivers were quickly arrested and placed under judicial control. Now it’s “compare the statements of the indicted with the reality of the facts” indicates the gendarmerie of Charente-Maritime within the framework of the investigation opened for aggravated manslaughter. It has footage from CCTV cameras placed on the bridge, but it misses everything that happened before the bridge and after. Hence the appeal to motorists traveling between the town of Saint Georges d’Oléron and the mainland.

Motorists are asked to contact the Marennes-Hiers-Brouage gendarmerie by telephone (05.46.85.00.19) or by email ([email protected]).
