Topologie algébrique, chapter III, § 5. Homotopie et revêtements (cas des espaces localement connexes par arcs)

Let B be a topological space locally connected by paths, let bb be a point of B, and let V be an open connected neighbourhood of bb such that the image of the homomorphism from π1(V,b)\pi_1(V, b) into π1(B,b)\pi_1(B, b) is the subgroup reduced to the identity element. By cor. 1, every covering of B is trivializable over V, and fortiori over every subset of B contained in V.

Bourbaki sets the proof directly after the statement, and the corpus does not separate them, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
