Discovered in the undergrowth

This Saturday, December 21, in the afternoon, the teenager was finally found dead during a citizen search, according to France Bleu and Le Dauphin.

One of the participants in the hunt discovered the body of the young boy hanging in the undergrowth near his mother's home in the Montponçon district of Voiron.

The Grenoble public prosecutor Eric Vaillant confirmed in the evening that it was indeed Antony's body but did not provide further details about the circumstances of his death.

An unusual silence

On December 5, the young man had argued with his brother before leaving the house where they live with their mother. That day, Antony left with only his mobile phone on him.

The teenager had run away before, but this absence did not seem to be his style, his family said. Since his departure on December 5, he had not called his mother once. An unusual silence, his relatives indicated.
