A farmer in Normandy told investigators two people in a vehicle 'with what appeared to be Serbian number plates' bought several pigs' heads from him, the Paris prosecutor's office said. They immediately left the country afterwards.
The suspects “likely used a Croatian telephone line” that was traced crossing the French-Belgian border on Tuesday morning, “after the crimes were committed,” the prosecutor’s office said.
Obviously, given the circumstances, France wants to tamp down on potential for induced upset, but I kind of think that maybe they should have sat on this unless they’re certain that the phone has already been dumped. There was a chance that the suspects might have hung onto the phone. Once this is in the news, I imagine that they’ll be separating themselves from it, reducing the chances of finding them.
