The players of the Parisian football club are definitely prime targets for thieves. Seven men were arrested on the night of Monday to Tuesday August 15, in Saint-Cloud (Hauts-de-Seine), suspected of preparing a robbery at the home of Julian Draxler, midfielder at PSG.
It is a quarter past midnight in this main avenue when the police implement discreet surveillance in front of the home of the German international. The police from the anti-crime squad are interested in a Volkswagen Golf. The car was reported to them the day before. The victim’s relatives believed that she was scouting near the athlete’s home.
Another car stopped a little further
The officials decide to control the two occupants of the vehicle and its search makes it possible to put the hand on gloves, balaclavas, plastic bonds. “It’s surprising equipment to say the least in the middle of summer,” quips a source familiar with the matter.
At the same time, a little further, another car is stopped. Five men are on board this Renault Clio, spotted and reported by the player’s security guard team. In the small city car, the search made it possible to get hold of the same type of robber’s equipment. The seven suspects were taken into custody at the Saint-Cloud police station for criminal association.
No theft or break-in was noted at the home of the alleged victim. The hearings of the suspects must be carried out during the day. The Nanterre public prosecutor’s office has 48 hours to decide on the follow-up to be given to this case.
