GRAND-YOFF : Deux coups de machette, six jours de cavale… le suspect finalement interpellé
An altercation nearly turned tragic in the Léona neighborhood of Grand-Yoff. A mechanic was seriously injured after being struck twice with a machete, as well as suffering injuries from broken glass.
Alerted around 8 p.m., officers from the Grand-Yoff district police station went to the scene. The victim, who had already been taken to Idrissa Pouye Hospital, had serious injuries, particularly to the head and throat.
The suspected perpetrator, who had fled after the incident, was finally apprehended after several days of investigations by the investigators.
During his interrogation, the accused reportedly confessed. He explained that he had reacted to insults uttered by the victim, while acknowledging that his response, with machete blows and broken bottles, was disproportionate.
After 48 hours in hospital, the victim's condition is now considered stable.
According to local sources, the suspect is already known to police for offenses involving bladed weapons. He is also accused of disappearing after certain incidents, only to reappear and attempt to resolve the matters through mediation.
The suspect has been taken into custody for attempted murder. The investigation is ongoing to determine the exact circumstances of the attack.
