A man in his thirties was shot dead this Sunday at midday in a city in a popular district of Marseille, by three men who then fled.
The victim, whose precise profile was not immediately known, was targeted by three men out of a car, with Kalashnikov-type weapons, in the city of the Petit Séminaire, in the 13th district of the city. .
The shooters have fled
The murderers then fled after this homicide evoking “an execution”, said a police source.
The judicial police were seized of the investigation.
Already on Wednesday, a man was shot in the head in another city of Marseille, and last weekend, two men were killed with assault rifles in their car on a motorway bridge in another arrondissement of the second largest city in France.
Investigators have yet to determine whether the killings amount to a settling of scores. Eight people died in settlements linked to narco-banditism in 2020 in Marseille, a figure stable compared to the previous year, according to the police.
