Four people, including Pierre Palmade, were seriously injured following the accident which occurred on February 10 on the RD372.
Three people were seriously injured in the road accident involving Pierre Palmade February 10, 2023. According to the first elements of the investigation, the comedian’s Peugeot hit a Renault Mégane in which there were three people: a pregnant woman, her 40-year-old brother-in-law and the child of the latter, six years old. Friday evening, they were all three in absolute emergency and seriously injured. The woman, more than six months pregnant, lost her child but her life is no longer in danger. Following this tragedy, the prosecutor decided to reclassify the investigation as homicide and unintentional injuries by driver resulting in total incapacity for more than three months.
The three victims are still hospitalized. The 6-year-old boy was still in a coma on Sunday evening, Le Parisien told us, and could not be woken up until Monday. His vital prognosis was still engaged. He suffered particularly from jaw and skull injuries. His father is “polytraumatized” and has had four operations, including heart surgery. “He was hit in the teeth, arms, legs,” said his cousin to the national daily. Seriously injured, his days are no longer in danger, said his cousin to BFM TV.
For his part, Pierre Palmade was placed in intensive care. While his vital prognosis was engaged on Friday, the day of the accident, his days are no longer in danger since Saturday, his relatives announced in a press release. A fifth person was involved in the accident: an 80-year-old man, who occupied a third car involved, who was however slightly injured.
The relatives of the pregnant woman, who went to the Kremlin-Bicêtre, where she was operated on, shared their concerns about her state of health, reports RTL. Asked by BFM-TV, Sunday, February 12, a relative of the father of the family gave his news. The man’s vital prognosis would no longer be engaged, but he still has to undergo several arm and leg operations. Still according to this relative, the child will not be able to be awakened before Monday, February 13. The doctors will then see if he has any sequelae from the accident, but the boy is injured in the jaw and in the skull.
Pierre Palmade reportedly lost control of his vehicle on Friday, February 10, after consuming cocaine. He was sentenced in 2019 to 1500 euros for use and possession of narcotics. The actor, who will be questioned by the police when his condition allows it, should be heard under police custody.
