Car rams into pedestrians in Évreux: one dead and five injured
A tragic incident occurred overnight in Évreux, northwest of Paris, when a car deliberately struck a group of pedestrians, leaving one person dead and five others injured, according to the local prosecutor’s office.
Authorities reported that the incident followed a street altercation that escalated into chaos. During the commotion, a vehicle drove into the crowd, causing multiple casualties.
The mayor of Évreux, Guy Lefrand, confirmed in a statement that the provisional toll includes one fatality, two people in critical condition, and three with less severe injuries.
Three individuals have been taken into custody as part of the ongoing investigation. Prosecutors have opened an inquiry into homicide and attempted homicide.
“The situation is now under control, but investigators are working to determine the exact circumstances of this tragedy,” Lefrand added.
