Five people were gathered at a bus stop on the Route des Refuzniks around half past midnight on Wednesday, when the facts originate. While the group is waiting for a bus, according to a witness, another group of ten people pass them. They all know each other and, obviously, there is a conflict between them.
In any case, the situation quickly degenerates into a fight at the level of the rue Jean-Lurçat, the attackers taking out bladed weapons or sticks to strike the victims. This is the meaning of the testimonies collected from two people by the investigators of the Sarcelles police station who carried out the first investigations.
