Driver in 2011 Tel Aviv Hit-And-Run Killed in Shooting Near Paris
- On Thursday morning, Eric Robic, the French businessman convicted for the 2011 hit-and-run death of Israeli woman Lee Zeitouni in Tel Aviv, was shot dead in a targeted ambush in the Paris suburb of Neuilly-sur-Seine.
- Following the 2011 incident, Robic and accomplice Claude Khayat fled to France, sparking outrage in Israel; a Paris court later sentenced Robic to five years in prison for aggravated manslaughter.
- At approximately 9:30 a.m., two helmeted assailants riding a TMAX scooter approached Robic and opened fire at close range; authorities are investigating the attack as a premeditated killing.
- Paris police are continuing a manhunt for the two suspects who escaped immediately after the shooting. A witness who alerted emergency services described the incident as a calculated execution.
- Known to law enforcement for fraud, assault, and contempt of court, Robic's extensive criminal record is now being reviewed by authorities to determine whether the ambush was linked to his past.
