How could this old wall, made of large stones, have collapsed? Accident? Voluntary act? For the mayor, there is no doubt: “He did not fall alone. It is an act of vandalism. According to her, the damage could have been caused by a tractor. “There are traces of red paint on some stones, but no debris, like in a car accident. ”
The authors would have bragged about it on social networks on Monday. “There is a video circulating on Snapchat. With in comment: “We did not pretend last night”. “
Anne-Sophie Peureux-Demangelle, who lodged a complaint, was to bring the video to the gendarmerie at the end of the day. She suspects young people from the village of having committed these degradations after a party.
Enedis technicians also intervened to consolidate a concrete electricity pole, located at the corner of the wall, which was weakened in the impact.
An investigation has been opened to find the perpetrators of this act of vandalism.
