How shocking, the no-good-knick was on a scooter. Seriously, people, avoid Sandy Ground at night.

It’s also not great during the day.

I'm shocked that the scooter rider turned himself in to the Gendarme.

Be Happy! Simply because you deserve to be. 😁

Me too. Justice on the French side is more swift and sure than the Dutch side.

I have had no issues driving thru Sandy Ground in the daytime, other than fretting about the safety of the cyclists...

Being charged with attempted murder sounds like it was intentional.

No problems as well driving through Sandy Ground and remember two years ago when we rented in the low lands and had to drive through almost every night to get to Gran Case, we were pleasantly surprised that no one hanging out on the streets.

Yes there were a few cyclists showing off.
I think the police presence every night just before Marigot certainly helped

Faster than any court in the States. Good for them.
