The caregivers targeted by offenders ? In the metropolis of Lille, during the weekend of May 8, 2020, the police arrested several individuals suspected of theft or damage who have touched medical staff. Recently, the gendarmerie had already alerted the carers on the multiplication of robbery.
Metro flights
According to a judicial source, on May 9 at around 5 p.m., a man was formally recognized by the police at the Wazemmes metro station in Lille. His report matched that of the author of a telephone theft committed on April 30 on a doctor at Roger-Salengro Hospital who was on his way to work.

On the same day, around 4:25 a.m., the police encountered Bondues, a man sitting by the road. During an inspection, the officers noted that the individual appeared to be heavily alcoholic. In his bag, a computer, a keyboard and a mouse are found, as well as the clothes of hospital staff from the Saint-Roch clinic.
