Three Charged in Organized Crime Shooting of Teen in Brittany

A 16-year-old boy remains critically injured after being shot in Lannion, with suspects now detained and facing multiple charges including attempted murder.

A 16-year-old boy was critically injured by a gunshot to the head on March 14, 2025, in Lannion, Côtes-d’Armor, with his condition still critical.
Three suspects—two men born in 2001 and 2007 and a woman born in 1994—have been formally charged with attempted murder and other serious offenses linked to organized crime.
The suspects turned themselves in at a gendarmerie in Clamecy, Nièvre, with the minor confessing to being the shooter, though conflicting accounts of the incident have emerged.
Police discovered drugs and gunshot residue at the scene, and witnesses reported seeing a white Audi A3 connected to the suspects.
The investigation, led by Rennes' specialized judicial authority, is ongoing and highlights concerns over violence and drug-related organized crime in the region.
