In a shocking turn of events in France, a prison van was attacked, resulting in the death of two prison officers and serious injuries to three others. The mastermind behind this audacious escape? None other than Mohamed Amra, a notorious 'drug boss' also known as 'The Fly'. Amra was being transported from court to a jail in Evreux when armed men ambushed the prison van, leading to a daring breakout.

The aftermath of the attack witnessed a massive manhunt for Amra, who was on the run with four other individuals.
