It looks like an execution. Eyoub BM, who was about to turn 19, was killed with an automatic weapon on the night of Monday May 30 to Tuesday May 31, shortly after midnight rue Paul-Cézanne, in the city of 3000 in Aulnay-sous-Bois (Seine- St Denis). A single shot, a 9mm bullet, was fatal to him. He collapsed in the street. Despite the cardiac massage and a pressure point given by young friends of his who were not far away, as well as the intervention of the Samu, he died shortly afterwards.
Bullet holes were found in seven vehicles parked on this street. No other injuries are reported so far. In any case, no one has made himself known to the hospitals in the area. “A magazine still containing ammunition was found on the spot,” said a source familiar with the matter. It would be a 9 mm magazine for an Uzi type submachine gun. He was reportedly lost in their flight by the perpetrators of the shot, on a path leading to a parking lot.
Witnesses, who were in a car parked next to the crime scene, describe the arrival of two armed men, dressed in black and with concealed faces. They would have arrived on foot through a small gate located at the end of the street. They explain that one of them was holding a handgun. He would have fired in the street, hitting several cars including the one where the two witnesses were. It received two impacts in the windshield. They say that they would have started to take shelter in the parking lot of the mosque. Then they would walk back. It was then that they would have discovered the victim on the ground, hit by a bullet.
Tensions between several neighborhoods
The young man lived in the neighborhood, a few blocks from where he was killed. The investigation, opened for “murder in an organized gang”, was entrusted to the criminal brigade. The track of settling accounts against the backdrop of drug trafficking is being considered. “The murder was not committed at a narcotics point, but there is one not far down the street,” said the same source. Proof of this is the degradation of the masts supporting the CCTV cameras. They have all been sawed off. Investigators will therefore not be able to rely on the images of the videos.
Eyoub was only known to the courts “for small common law offenses, but not for narcotics cases”, specifies this source.
This murder occurs in a particular context in the neighborhoods of Aulnay-sous-Bois. “It is very tense between the districts of 3000, the city of Europe and that of Gros Saule, among other things for cases of narcotics”, notes a police source. The case has nothing to do with this murder, but a young man of about fifteen, from the district of Europe, was seriously injured the previous week in a stairwell of 3000. His prognosis vital had been engaged for a while.
