In Amiens, the criminal court dismissed the trial of the man who stole a car in Abbeville on Tuesday afternoon: it will be March 25. A few minutes before the theft of this vehicle, the defendant had stolen a first car in Amiens. It’s a hell of a journey that the fugitive made in the space of only two hours.
He steals the car without noticing the presence of children in the back
On board this first stolen car, the young man takes the direction of Abbeville. But on the way, he loses control of the vehicle, crashes into a gate and flees. In Abbeville, this 24-year-old saw a father, who left his car running for a race. The defendant climbs, starts… and notices the presence of three children aged 11, 6 and 4 in the back. He brings them down 600 meters further.
A psychiatric report for the defendant
“Why did you steal these cars?asks the president of the court.It happens to everyone to do bullshit“, is content to reply the defendant, who acknowledges the facts. His escape from the defendant stops in Airaines, between Abbeville and Amiens. The blood alcohol and narcotics tests carried out by the gendarmes come back positive.
In court, the defendant, who is part of the community of Travelers, is not very concentrated; he fails to explain his actions. His lawyer Maître Laurie Cenci obtained a psychiatric expertise from her client : “Obviously, Monsieur does not have the same understanding as us: after that, it remains to be seen whether there is a psychiatric pathology or not. He is above all a little 24-year-old guy, who left school very early, who manages as he can professionally: he does not have the same background as everyone else. details the lawyer.
This 24-year-old Amiens has already served more than 2 years in prison, in particular for theft and violence. He is imprisoned until his trial on March 25.
