The thief supposedly helped his victim up the stairs of the car park on Avenue Monterey, before carefully removing their watch. An investigation is underway.
While patrolling Rue de la Fonderie, police officers observed two men acting suspiciously. Following a brief foot chase, one of the suspects admitted to swallowing several balls of cocaine. He was taken to hospital, where a scan confirmed the presence of foreign objects in his body.
The man was subsequently arrested on the orders of the public prosecutor and brought before an examining magistrate on Sunday morning.
