On August 13, a passer-by first noticed a body near a bridge in Choisy-le-Roi, a suburb southeast of Paris. A subsequent search by police revealed three additional bodies within the vicinity later that same day. According to prosecutors, one of the victims appeared to have been strangled, while another exhibited signs of violent trauma.
A man is currently in custody in Paris as police continue to question him regarding the murders. However, details regarding the suspect or specific charges remain undisclosed. The initial body found was identified as a 40-year-old local man and appeared to have recently entered the water, while the other three bodies were in what authorities described as a "very advanced state of decomposition."
Prosecutors have emphasized that, at this stage in the investigation, there is no evidence suggesting a connection between the victims, indicating it is plausible they may have been pulled under from different locations upstream before being carried downriver to where they were ultimately found. Authorities are continuing their investigation to uncover further details surrounding these tragic events.
