A young man of 18 who lives in the Dordogne, did not have a driving licence but that did not stop him one night last week when he fancied going to a disco. He successively "dérobé " / stole six vehicles. With one he could not drive it with another he ended up in a fosse / a ditch. Early in the morning after a night at the disco he tried to go home in the same way, by stealing cars, stealing a lorry of 7.5 tonnes a Cherveix Cubas, which the gendarmes later found intact. In total 3 cars were "endommagées" / damaged by the young would be driver that night. Needless to say he is now in a cell in Périgueux, awaiting his sentence for theft.
