The circumstances surrounding the deaths of 5-year-old Tyméo and his father, Bryan Brigou, in Onhaye remain under investigation as authorities await toxicology results to clarify a working hypothesis involving an accident followed by suicide, according to reporting by Bel RTL.
Did You Know? The bodies of Tyméo and his father were discovered last week in a wooded area in Onhaye, situated along the Nationale 97.
Investigation Details and Working Hypotheses
Investigators are exploring a new working hypothesis in the Onhaye case. According to a source close to the investigation, Bryan Brigou may have left his young son inside a vehicle to purchase drugs. The child reportedly died from the heat, after which the father allegedly placed the body in a wooded area, crossed the Nationale, and took his own life, as reported by Bel RTL.
Authorities emphasize that this scenario remains strictly a working hypothesis at this stage. Investigators are not ruling out any possibilities as they attempt to establish the exact sequence of events.
In contrast, the child’s mother believes an outside individual was involved in the deaths. She described Bryan Brigou as a father who was very close to his son, noting that he had purchased toys for Tyméo on the very morning of the incident, according to Bel RTL details.
Forensic Findings and Toxicology Pending
Search operations conducted at the scene failed to recover any projectile traces near the bodies, according to information reported by Sudinfo. This physical finding reduces the probability of third-party involvement, although officials have not completely dismissed that hypothesis.
Investigators are awaiting the results of toxicology analyses. These tests will establish whether Bryan Brigou had consumed drugs on the day of the incident, according to Bel RTL reports.
Community Tributes and Memorials
Community members have gathered to honor the young victim and his father through formal memorial services. This Monday, hundreds of people assembled in Yvoir to pay a final tribute to 5-year-old Tyméo, according to Bel RTL.
Funeral services for Bryan Brigou are scheduled to take place on Tuesday in Hastière, as reported by the same sources.
