The 64-year-old victim was allegedly ejected from a moving vehicle and run over during a suspected familial dispute.

  • A 64-year-old man was found unconscious on a road in Charvieu-Chavagneux, Isère, on Friday evening and later pronounced dead at the scene.
  • Investigators suspect the man's son, in his thirties, of ejecting him from a moving car, dragging him by the door, and running him over, according to a witness account.
  • The son, who was already wanted by authorities, fled to the Paris region but was apprehended by national police on Saturday.
  • The case is being investigated as 'murder on an ascendant' by the Vienne prosecutor's office, with the Grenoble and Bourgoin-Jallieu research brigades leading the inquiry.
  • Authorities believe the incident stemmed from a family dispute, as the victim had spent the afternoon with his son prior to the fatal events.
