One of the men detained “was a target of the investigators – we have traces of DNA linking him to the robbery”, Ms Beccuau said. One of the suspects, an Algerian national, was aged 34, had lived in France since 2010, and was known to police for road traffic offences. The second was aged 39, born in the Paris suburb of Aubervilliers, and had convictions for burglary.
