However, the police quickly arrived and arrested three of the four criminals – a 21-year-old adult and two 16-year-old minors. They were placed in police custody by the Versailles judicial police.

A police officer suffered a knee injury in the process of detaining them.

RMC reported a knife was found at the scene and various items stolen from the house were found on the suspects.
