Shots were fired between rue Saint-Exupéry and rue d’Alsace in Fameck on January 3 in the middle of the afternoon. A bullet nested in a window of the Saint-Exupéry school, shortly after the end of classes. The facts were relayed in the Republican Lorrain. But this report on the public highway did not take place as it should have, hampered by the violence of a passerby.
At the end of the day, the photographer-reporter travels to the scene to complete the article of his fellow editor, to support the information with the image. He parks near the school and asks a man he meets in the street for information. The latter demands money. The photographer refuses and approaches the school. The stranger follows him and is threatening. It demands that freshly taken photos be erased. He claims 50 euros from the journalist to authorize him to take pictures. The pressure is such that the professional gives the twenty euros he has on him. He will still manage to do his job before spinning.

Prosecuted for extortion
The newspaper and the employee filed a complaint. The fameckois attacker, quickly identified by the gendarmes of the local brigade, was summoned before the criminal court of Thionville on Tuesday, prosecuted for extortion. He did not come. But his absence and his record spoke for him. The 46-year-old man is already known to the courts, he has 17 convictions, mainly for thefts.
The public prosecutor, Brice Partouche, took the opportunity to recall that such episodes of tension where individuals appropriate the territory are recurrent in Fameck. “You come to my house, you pay a tax,” he illustrates. The magistrate sanctions firmly. The court follows and sentences the defendant to four months in prison.
