Grigny (91): Two men seriously injured by gunfire. Tensions were high at the scene, and medical staff had to evacuate the area to treat one of the victims.

Sunday evening was very unsettled in the center of Grigny. Gunfire in the parking lot of the former Leclerc led to significant tension on the scene and the massive intervention of police forces. Two people were seriously injured.

Both victims suffered serious injuries to their lower limbs. One, aged around 25, was hospitalized with a bullet lodged in his thigh. The second victim, aged 30, was hit by a 22 long rifle cartridge that passed through his leg. […] The nature of the injuries, located in the legs, could suggest a hamstring injury, a settling of scores, although there is no certainty at this stage. […]

Dozens of witnesses witnessed the shooting and will also be interviewed by the police. While the injured were being treated, a crowd hostile to the police formed around the crime scene. The tension was so high that medical staff had to evacuate the area with one of the injured to treat him under normal conditions, while the other was on the way to the hospital. "It was very tense," confirmed an evening witness. The atmosphere finally returned to calm late that night.
