The emergency shelter Le Germenoy (photo) in Vaux-le-Pénil in the department of Seine-et-Marne is in a state of emergency.
At around 7.20 pm on Monday April 24, a resident of this emergency shelter on Rue Raymond-Hervillard, which houses people in emergency situations, armed himself with a pair of scissors and threatened violence against a 74-year-old resident.
The police and the fire brigade were on duty. The perpetrator was arrested by the special unit “Brigade anticriminalité” in the garden when he refused to drop the stabbing weapon. He was extremely threatening and no reasoning was possible,” reported a source at the scene. In a fit of rage, he shouted Allah and waved the Koran as he walked towards the police staff.”
The 19-year-old was eventually subdued with a Taser, a stun gun. In police custody, this Guinean, who was in France without authorisation and unknown to the police authorities until then, made confused statements. La République de Seine-et-Marne
