A young man was stabbed to death on Thursday evening on a street in Saint-Ouen, a police source and the Bobigny prosecutor’s office said on Friday.
The events took place in the early evening. The 23-year-old victim “just before her got into an altercation with another person and was stabbed in the chest,” the police source said.
Intentional homicide investigation
“It happened on public roads but it would have started in a bar,” he added.
The hypothesis of a settling of accounts linked to drug trafficking, particularly important in Saint-Ouen, is considered.
The investigation into manslaughter by stabbing was entrusted to the Departmental Service of the Judicial Police.
