This Saturday, drug addicts received mortar fire in the Garden of Eole near Stalingrad. One person was arrested and taken into police custody.
At around 4 p.m. on Saturday, drug addicts grouped together in the Jardin d’Eole near Stalingrad in the 18th arrondissement were targeted by mortar fire. The shots came from around twenty individuals who fled when the police arrived, reports Le Figaro. One of them was arrested and taken into police custody.
Many videos on social networks report the firework mortar fire following which the first drug addicts evacuated the park. Many associations are fighting in the Stalingrad district against the presumed untimely and undesirable presence of drug addicts. Local residents have organized numerous demonstrations to express their dissatisfaction with the presence of drug addicts.

Drug addicts must be moved by June 30
The authorities had announced in mid-May that the drug addicts grouped together in Stalingrad had moved to the Jardin d’Eole. Crack consumers benefit from a reserved space in the garden, to the chagrin of residents. At the time of the trip, the mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo had pledged that drug addicts leave Parc Eole by June 30. The new place in which they are to be received has not yet been communicated by the town hall.
