New twist in the case of the serious accident caused by Pierre Palmade. According to our information, a man was arrested this Wednesday morning in Clichy-la-Garenne in the Hauts-de-Seine, as well as a woman suspected of being his landlady. The individual was taken into custody. He was arrested on identification of the investigators.
A track that seems much more serious than that of Monday evening. A man had indeed contacted the gendarmes of Montdidier (Somme), claiming to be one of the two suspects, before being arrested. However, after verification, his police custody was lifted.
Since Friday, investigators have been on the trail of two passengers in the comedian’s car whom witnesses reported seeing flee after the collision.
“The child would have been born alive”
Pierre Palmade “wakes up little by little and realizes the horror of what happened, of what he caused,” his family said on Tuesday. The state of health of Pierre Palmade would not for the moment be compatible with long hearings. The Melun prosecution therefore prefers to wait to place the actor in police custody and thus be able to audition him for 48 hours. He could then be heard by the gendarmes, who for their part have opened an investigation for a violation of the narcotics legislation.
The accident involving Pierre Palmade took place around 7:00 p.m. on Friday on the D372 at Villiers-en-Bière, in the south of Seine-et-Marne. The comedian’s car collided with another vehicle coming in front. Two of the victims, a 38-year-old man and his 6-year-old son, were still in intensive care on Tuesday, according to their lawyer. The boy has a “fractured jaw” and the father has undergone several operations, explained Mr. Battikh.
The third seriously injured, a 27-year-old pregnant woman who lost her baby, is “collapsed”, says his lawyer, who indicates that “an emergency cesarean section” was performed. “The child would have been born alive but this remains to be confirmed by the expertise”, he adds.
