I have the impression that he is somewhere with someone... if not, perhaps someone he knows acted violently towards him, I don't think a stranger...
rest in peace

If anyone is familiar with European John Doe’s, this gentleman might be one of them.

I haven’t had much luck in my searches. Maybe a fluent french sleuther will have better luck!
