Victim in Stable Condition as Authorities Appeal for Witnesses

A man was injured on Wednesday afternoon after being shot twice with Kalashnikov bullets at a tram stop in Grenoble, France. The victim, who is in his 20s, was rushed to the hospital in stable condition.

According to witnesses, the shooting occurred at around 5:30 pm at the Clos d'Or queue tram stop in the Villeneuve neighborhood. The victim was reportedly standing at the stop when a gunman approached and fired several shots.

The suspect, who is described as a man in his 30s, fled the scene on foot. Police have launched a manhunt for the suspect and are appealing for witnesses to come forward with any information.

The shooting has sent shockwaves through the Grenoble community. Mayor Éric Piolle condemned the violence and expressed his solidarity with the victim and his family.

The investigation is ongoing, and police are trying to determine the motive behind the shooting. It is unclear if the victim was targeted specifically or if he was simply an innocent bystander.

This is the second shooting in Grenoble in recent weeks. On March 10, a 16-year-old boy was shot and killed in the La Villeneuve neighborhood.
