Summary

Ms. Tiffany Joncour draws the attention of the Minister of the Interior to a situation that occurred in Jonage which vividly illustrates the growing vulnerability of firefighters and, more broadly, of all emergency and security personnel. On August 20, 2025, three firefighters from the Jonage center intervened at the home of an individual reported by a friend as threatening to end his life. Upon their arrival, a A gendarmerie crew was already on site and trying to initiate a dialogue with the person concerned. As soon as he saw the firefighters, this individual, very heavily intoxicated, showed immediate hostility and ordered them to move away from his home. During the discussions, he repeatedly made worrying comments indicating his desire to voluntarily inject an air bubble into his veins, while asserting have at home the necessary equipment to do so. The seriousness of these statements led those involved to seek the advice of a SAMU doctor, who confirmed that he could under no circumstances be left there without treatment. The situation changed when the individual reappeared at his window brandishing a kitchen knife, before yelling that he would slit the throat of the first person who entered his home. The policeman present with the firefighters then had to target the attacker in order to force him to put down the weapon. Several additional units, including the PSIG, were mobilized to secure the surrounding area and ultimately enable medical treatment of the person concerned. Once transported to hospital, he again adopted aggressive behavior, before being sedated and tied up by the medical team. At the end of this intervention, four complaints were were filed by the firefighters concerned and two by the gendarmes present. Pedestrian camera recordings corroborated all of the statements. Despite these consistent elements, the public prosecutor nevertheless decided to close the case on the grounds that the offense would be insufficiently characterized. Such a decision arouses deep incomprehension among those who, that day, were directly threatened in the exercise of their mission. It reflects a broader phenomenon in which attacks committed against firefighters, gendarmes, police officers or caregivers do not give rise to any real follow-up, which weakens the very meaning of their commitment and fuels a deleterious feeling of institutional abandonment. She therefore wishes to know what measures the Government intends to take to guarantee that no armed aggression or threat serious incident targeting firefighters cannot be dismissed without further action. She would also like to know the directions envisaged to strengthen the legal protection of all emergency and security personnel, as well as to ensure closer coordination between the services of the Ministry of the Interior and the Ministry of Justice, so that any violence committed against them is systematically responded to. firm, readable and dissuasive criminal law.
