Two men in Carmaux went to buy a hunting rifle and then pulled out a gun of their own and tried to make off with the gun they were examining. The shop owner used a tear gas canister to ward them off and they fled. Coming across a police control they opened fire and stole one of the officer's guns. Stealing a car they then made off. Police in the Carmaux area are "actively seeking two men".
Let's hope that these two are as stupid as the two who robbed the van of a "banda" (marching band) in Figeac. These two posed for selfies with the stolen musical instruments which they posted via Snapchat. The band had appealed on social media for anyone to look out for dubious offers of musical instruments and an eagle eyed internaut spotted them and informed the gendarmes. They were traced and arrested.
