Horror in Paris: Body of 12-Year-Old Found in Trunk Outside Home
A murder probe is underway after chilling discovery of a 12-year-old girl’s body in a trunk outside her family’s flat in northeast Paris on Friday night.
Four Arrested in Suburban Dragnet
Police have detained four suspects in the quiet suburb of Bois-Colombes, just outside the capital. Details about their connection to the girl remain unclear.
Tragic Timeline Unfolds
- The girl, who lived in the 19th arrondissement, was last seen entering her building’s lobby at 3pm, captured by CCTV.
- Her father raised the alarm when she failed to return from school, prompting her mother to report her missing to police.
- Her body was found around 11pm the same evening, but what transpired during those eight hours remains a mystery.
Surveillance Footage Adds Grim Detail
Security cameras also caught a woman struggling to drag a heavy trunk outside the building late that night, suggesting a possible connection to the victim’s death.
The young girl was described by her parents as having shoulder-length blonde hair, wearing frayed white jeans, a white hoodie, a puffer vest, and white sneakers when she disappeared.
The cause of death has not yet been revealed as investigators continue their search for answers.
