Refusal to comply with the drama. Two young people died in an accident during the night from Friday to Saturday near Toulouse, in Mauzac (Haute-Garonne), following a refusal to comply, according to information from Ici Occitanie that the Toulouse prosecutor’s office confirmed to Parisien-Aujourd’hui in France.
The driver of the vehicle, who refused to stop during a police check, has been in police custody since Sunday. According to our information, he will be referred to the prosecutor’s office on Monday with the intention of opening a judicial investigation and his driver’s license was suspended for driving under the influence of drugs last spring.
After refusing to obey police, the driver accelerated his vehicle and crashed at a nearby roundabout, throwing his car into a nearby lake, according to the Toulouse prosecutor’s office.
Two people were not injured
The same source said that the police did not give chase and they were far from the car when the tragedy occurred. As a result of this accident, two passengers survived and two people died. The four men in the vehicle were friends and aged between 21 and 24, according to the Toulouse prosecutor’s office.

If the driver continued driving despite police requests, it was because one of the passengers convinced him during a discussion not to stop, according to Ici Occitanie. Local media also indicated that the passengers were smoking marijuana during a routine police check, which could explain their escape.
There is currently no information on whether the driver was drunk or on drugs. The results of the toxicology analysis will be known this Monday.
