By taking control of St-Jacques, the Germans got into the habit of coming to shoot the resistance fighters who bothered them there.
The first man shot was on July 17, 1940 and was called Marcel Brossier, sentenced to death for having cut a telephone cable.
It was the same fate for 75 other resistance fighters, mostly from Ille-et-Vilaine.
