Six Arrested in Connection with Nîmes Police Station Fire

The suspects, aged 15 to 28, are linked to an August blaze that damaged an unopened police station in a troubled neighborhood.

The fire occurred in the Pissevin district of Nîmes, a poor area affected by drug trafficking.
The police station was promised after a local boy, Fayed, was killed by a stray bullet nearby.
The fire was started by pouring fuel through a chimney of an adjacent butcher shop under renovation.
The suspects are known for drug-related activities, but no direct link to the fire has been established.
The police station was not yet inaugurated at the time of the incident, impacting its structural integrity.
