A teenager in the eastern French town of Mont-Saint-Martin had to make a gruesome discovery: Monday around 1 p.m., the 16-year-old found the body of a woman who was also horribly disfigured — she was undressed, her head and limbs missing. “At first he thought she was a mannequin,” said a witness. “We’ve never seen anything like it. Like the cartels in South America.”
The city where the crime took place is not far from the Belgian border. The body of the 16-year-old passerby was found near an abandoned factory building. He received a shock and had to be taken care of by the emergency services, reports “L’essentiel”.
The location would be near a shopping center. The terrifying discovery drew many onlookers. “We can hardly believe it. It is very shocking that something like this is happening in our area. We are thinking of the poor woman and her family. How can you do such a thing?” explained an eyewitness.
Body probably only deposited on the same day
Police cordoned off the area after the alarm. The identity of the victim has not yet been clarified. An autopsy will be performed as soon as possible, police said. The hull is believed to have been placed in front of the building a few hours before it was found. Some traders suspected that a corpse had most likely been spotted during the crowded Sunday market.
