A 15-year-old teenager was found dead on Tuesday, April 9, 2024, in the toilets of a private high school in Reims.

Alerted, the emergency services quickly went to the scene, but failed to revive him. He died shortly after 20 p.m., according to a police source. For the moment, the context of this death "is absolutely not clearly defined", indicated the prosecutor François Schneider.

Hiking is not an innocuous leisure activity, and it is important to prepare physically. This Saturday, April 13 in the morning, a 70-year-old man who was participating in a hike organized by a local club on the way to Lavigayrie, in the Lot valley, was probably the victim of a heart attack.

On Sunday, February 11, a man in his fifties died during a hike with his relatives in the town of Roquefort-les-Cascades, in Ariège.

In memoriam: Cornelis Pons, local troubadour
April 10, 2024
He had accepted it. Death would be near. Two weeks ago, the pain in his shoulder turned out to be metastatic bone cancer. Cornelis Pons did not want to be treated for it. His health was no longer good. He died on Wednesday, at the age of 73. Vlaardingen loses in him a witty, and at the same time serious, songwriter and troubadour. Cornelis Pons wrote lyrics for Fungus and The Amazing Stroopwafels. He performed with Lévi Weemoedt and Hans Dorrestijn. He formed a strong duo with Anton Swaneveld, as evidenced by the songs 'Nacht over de Rijnmond', 'Koffer in Schiedam' and 'Vlaardingen voor beginners'. Their voices harmonized beautifully. He also taught journalism at the Utrecht University of Applied Sciences. There he taught that being an (objective) journalist is incompatible with membership of a political party. He was strongly opposed to forming opinions and influencing what was supposed to be factually correct reporting.

A worker dies in Ponteareas after suffering a cardiac arrest before falling from a forklift
April 8, 2024
A worker has died this morning at a company in Ponteareas after suffering a cardiac arrest and subsequently a fall from a forklift. He was working at a cod preparation plant. Apparently, the man suffered a medical episode, and then fell from a forklift and hit his head. Initially, the occupational accident protocols were activated, although later it could be verified that the deceased suffered a previous health problem, possibly a heart problem, which would have caused his fall. According to health sources, death would be more related to cardiac arrest prior to the fall, rather than to the work activity itself.
No age reported.
