An investigation was opened in Lorient after the destruction during a construction site of a DIY store of small menhirs in Carnac (Morbihan), the value of which is debated, confirmed to AFP the parquet floor of Lorient. This investigation, against X, follows a complaint received Monday from the Koun Breizh association “denouncing a voluntary destruction of archaeological heritage”, specified the public prosecutor Stéphane Kellenberger. She was entrusted to the research brigade of the Lorient gendarmerie.

The case broke out in early June when Ouest-France revealed the existence of a blog post, published on the Sites website.

The mayor (Horizons) of the town, Olivier Lepick, had recognized for his part “an administrative error” but which would be “not the fact of the town” which respected the legislation according to him. The home of the elected official, subsequently threatened with death on social networks, was placed under the protection of the gendarmerie, by decision of the sub-prefect of Lorient. Tags had also been inscribed in the night from Saturday to Sunday on the entrance facade of the church of the town.
