Formula 1 | Jean Alesi arrested in France!

It's true that the holidays are coming but perhaps Jean Alesi got too carried away. In fact, the former Formula 1 driver was arrested last night in Avignon, guilty of having exploded a firecracker against the window of the office where his brother-in-law works.

The crime occurred on Sunday evening and the residents, alarmed by the explosion, immediately notified the police. Initially, Jean's brother, Josè Alesi, was accused, recognized by the license plate noted by a neighbor. Precisely for this reason, last night the 57-year-old went to the police station to exonerate his brother and was arrested for "having damaged the property of others by means of an explosive device", as declared by the deputy prosecutor of Nimes, Antoine Wolff.

Alesi said that he was in the car with his son and a friend of the boy. They went to the office of their brother-in-law (who is separating from his sister, ed.) and wanted to do a “bad joke” with “a large firework purchased in Italy” but he hadn't thought about the consequences.
