A 19-year-old man was arrested by the Bergerac courthouse in Dordogne on Monday, May 30 for refusing to obey, receiving property from theft, and using violence with a weapon. On Saturday night, May 28, he had fled his home on a scooter. A team from the Anti-crime Brigade (BAC) asked him to stop and conduct a check.
He didn’t want to be checked because the scooter he was riding with was stolen. The man escaped from the two-wheeler, fell off and tried to walk, but he didn’t throw his helmet at the police, who eventually arrested him. At 8:45 p.m. on Saturday, the young man was taken into custody
Maxime Barde was found guilty and received a suspended sentence of four months in prison, 70 hours community service, and other obligations (to work or repair the damage). Maxime Barde already had four convictions on his criminal record.
