The attacker, identified as the man seen fleeing in the video, reportedly targeted the victim after witnesses claim he merely glanced in his direction before allegedly attempting to rob him. Following the assault, the assailant was pursued by crack users who frequent the area.
The victim, a resident of Place Labadié, endured the brutal attack in what appears to be yet another episode of violence linked to the illicit activities rampant in the square. According to residents, Place Labadié has become a hub for drug trafficking and other criminal activities, including prostitution.
Expressing frustration and concern over the deteriorating situation in the square, a local resident lamented, “This square is the crossroads between the northern districts and the rest of Marseille. There is prostitution and crack dealing; we are fighting against that. We are fed up.”
Peu de temps après l’agression, un riverain témoigne, excédé : « Cette place c’est le carrefour entre les quartiers nord et le reste de Marseille. Il y a de la prostitution et du deal de crack, on se bat contre ça. On en a marre. » ⤵️ https://t.co/VuckIDH56P

Authorities have yet to apprehend the assailant, and investigations are ongoing. The incident has once again highlighted the urgent need for measures to address the underlying issues of drug-related migrant crime and violence plaguing Marseille’s neighborhoods.
Crackheads get all paranoid, and then attack people randomly thinking they are demons or monsters. No surprises here. Then you have hookers and pimps all over the place. Probably need to step up the foot patrols in the crackhead areas. Use plain clothes and sneak up on them. Then arrest and beat the snot out of them!
Get that crackhead Hunter (Bozobiden spawn) too. He likes crack and hookers. Ask his 14 year-old niece.
Sometimes these idiots sell fake crack rocks too. Then the guy paying gets pissed off, and shoots or stabs the dope peddler. Like to see more dope peddlers get shot. Or send them to Truedope, and he can offer them suicide pods?
