A murder enquiry has been opened in France after a British retiree was found dead following ‘a very violent beating’.
Identified as John A., 85, the married man lived on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Verlus, near Toulouse, in south-west France.
Two men were seen fleeing his property – where he was alone because his wife was in hospital – last Friday night after stealing his Kia car.
‘Police tried to stop the car because it was being driven erratically,’ an investigating source said.
