Suspect in Lyon Homeless Murder Arrested Amid Wide-Ranging Investigation

A 32-year-old man, under an expulsion order from France, is linked to multiple violent attacks across France and the Netherlands.

The suspect, identified as Levis E., was apprehended in Toulon after an assault on a train, leading to his arrest for the murder of a homeless man in Lyon.
Authorities are investigating the suspect's connection to similar attacks in Évry, Dijon, Strasbourg, and Rotterdam, involving the use of heavy objects as weapons.
The Lyon murder, captured on surveillance video, involved a Moldovan homeless man killed with a concrete block, a method seen in other incidents.
Levis E. is subject to an obligation to leave France, complicating the legal proceedings as multiple jurisdictions are involved in the investigation.
DNA analyses and video evidence are being used to confirm the suspect's involvement in the series of crimes targeting homeless individuals.
