The sleepy coastal town of Cagnes-sur-Mer was rocked this week after a neighbourhood dispute ended in the death of a 40-year-old man. The incident took place in the Les Jardins de Cocagne residence in the early hours of Monday afternoon. The unfortunate event occurred after a family lunch apparently spilled over into a domestic squabble, prompting a neighbour to come over and complain about the excessive noise.<\/p>\n
With inflamed passions, the homeowners took the umbrella at the man’s interjection and the argument soon escalated into insults and threats. <\/span><\/span><\/span>The neighbor then returned to an axis, before coming back to the house in question and threatening violence if his wishes were not obeyed. <\/span><\/span><\/span>At this point, it is believed that someone in the house responded by retrieving their own weapon – a rifle – and in the ensuing confusion, the man was shot and sustained serious injuries.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n An 18-year-old male, believed to be the culprit, originally fled the scene. <\/span><\/span><\/span>Meanwhile, paramedics arrived on the scene but were unable to revive the stricken party, who died later that afternoon from his wounds. <\/span><\/span><\/span>An elderly lady is also thought to be mildly injured, while two young women were visibly shaken by the events of the afternoon. <\/span><\/span><\/span>Although they were taken into custody for questioning, they were later released.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n As yet, no details about the identity of the victim or the public. <\/span><\/span><\/span>Indeed, very little concrete information is known about the incident other than its location in the hilltop residence of Cagnes-sur-Mer. <\/span><\/span><\/span>The investigation has been entrusted to the security forces of the Alpes-Maritimes department and several witnesses to the exact sequence of events. <\/span><\/span><\/span>However, since a young man has already made it happen to the authorities, it does not appear to be a complicated case. <\/span><\/span><\/span>More information is expected to be forthcoming in the next few days and weeks.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" 18-year-old man has handed himself into police after apparently shooting neighbour with a rifle The sleepy coastal town of Cagnes-sur-Mer […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":4017,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[243],"tags":[],"post_sectags":[],"post_format":[],"class_list":["post-4016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
