Alleged Louvre Burglar Tried in Bobigny for 2019 Police Station Damage
Abdulaye N., a 40-year-old man from Aubervilliers widely known by his social media alias 'Doudou Cross Bitume,' appeared before the Bobigny criminal court in Seine-Saint-Denis. He is currently on trial for damaging a door and a mirror at the Aulnay-sous-Bois police station during police custody in 2019, an incident linked to a previous theft investigation. While the charges from that specific judicial investigation were previously dismissed, he faces judgment for these acts of vandalism now. Abdulaye N. has gained significant notoriety as one of the four alleged members of the commando responsible for the high-profile robbery of the Apollon gallery at the Louvre Museum on October 19, 2025, where Crown jewels were stolen. His online presence, characterized by motocross stunt videos on platforms like YouTube and TikTok, contributed to his public recognition prior to the major heist. This current trial represents a legal proceeding for older, less severe offenses compared to the spectacular Louvre theft, highlighting the ongoing judicial processes surrounding the suspects involved in the recent major cultural crime.
