Fresh shooting in Avignon: young man wounded by gunfire in Monclar neighbourhood
A young man was seriously struck by multiple gunshots in the Monclar housing estate in Avignon. This fresh shooting comes amid recurring tensions in this sector of Vaucluse, where law enforcement and the justice system face a succession of serious incidents.
In recent months, the Monclar neighbourhood has become the scene of multiple acts of violence. Scores to settle, arson attacks, extortion and homicides have marked the life of this sector. A resident, questioned by our colleagues at Dauphiné Libéré, offered a bleak assessment: according to him, the situation resembles a television series where every week or fortnight brings its share of new dramatic episodes.
All of the department's judicial services are closely monitoring developments in this area. The authorities remain mobilised in the face of this phenomenon of violence that is prolonged in nature.
