Océane, 5, has sparkling eyes and an innocent smile when she receives the three plush toys that Bruno Fagard, a 55-year-old Noyonnais, brought her in a bag. The man smiles at her, embraces her and kisses her on the cheek. The unobtrusive and touching scene took place at noon on Thursday, September 28, in front of the parking lot of the residence Coallia (ex-Aftam) in Saint-Blaise de Noyon: for a few minutes,
this job seeker had found again the little girl whom he seized and removed from the scene of the drama, on the platform of the station, a few seconds after the triple assassination of September 10.
That morning, Alain Leuilly, a police officer, shot his pregnant wife Sindy and two of their five children, Melvine and Guilian, before turning his service weapon on himself.
Bruno Fagard, who arrived on the scene just after the shooting, had immediately put the schoolgirl, one of the couple's daughters, in safety. She was the only survivor.
The fifty-year-old, who came to the public tribute organized on September 17 in front of the station, had expressed the wish to see Océane again. Especially after receiving a picture of the girl by SMS and several thank-you messages from Sindy's family, most of whom live in Guadeloupe.
"It's important to me because that day I only had time to see her hair and raincoat. She immediately grabbed onto my arm, held my neck," the witness confided yesterday morning. What I want is just to give her a big kiss, hug her. And give him my plush toys."
The little girl, who arrived by car alongside a brother and sister, had little time to linger: hitherto, she had been staying with a host family in the Compiégnois region of France and she was due to fly to Guadeloupe with an uncle and an aunt. "Océane will be back in the family cocoon," a relative assures. Bruno Fagard, the father of the family, was moved by this:"I asked to hear from her until she grows up. Maybe there will be even a way one day to see her again.
He, who lives a hundred metres from the station, in a housing unit belonging to the Coallia association, admits to having lived through difficult days:"From my window, I see the platform where everything happened. I
nevitably it all came back in my head," he says. "I'm sleeping a little better now. But it's impossible for me to watch an action film, to hear gunshots..." This Thursday was an epilogue in the sweetness.
