Burglary in Porta Westfalica: High quality pedelecs stolen!
In the night from March 12, 2025, a spectacular slump occurred in a bicycle retailer in Porta Westfalica. Unknown perpetrators used the early morning hours to take a window window around 4:10 a.m. and thus get into the sales room. How szlz.de reported, the burglars focused on several high -quality pedelecs that were particularly on the glass front.
The perpetrators loaded the stolen bicycles into a white panel van from the Iveco brand and were able to flee unnoticed. The prey damage amounts to several ten thousand euros. The police have now been looking for witnesses who have made suspicious observations near the "erz movement" at the time of the crime or in advance, and asks for information on the telephone number (0571) 8866-0.
similar incident in the mill circle
It is noteworthy that this incident is not the first of its kind in the region. A similar bicycle theft was recently reported in the Mühlenkreis, in which pedelecs were stolen worth around 150,000 euros. This indicates that bicycle offenses in the area may increase and that local shops are more at risk.With such a high prey damage, the question of the correct protection for owners of high -quality bicycles also arises. According to Presseportal.de It is advisable for owners of e-bikes and similar bicycles to take out a specialized bicycle or e-bike insurance, since these more risks are covered as a conventional household insurance. The compensation according to thefts can usually be higher for special insurance companies.
Insurance coverage and legal aspects
e-bike insurance generally offer higher insurance sums and blankets more extensive risks. This includes not only theft, but also damage, vandalism and other events. Consumers must choose between reimbursement in the new value or current value when the contract is concluded. The new value damage ensures the amount for an equivalent new bike, while the current value describes the current value of the bike according to age and wear. If you have several bicycles, you need separate contracts for each individual wheel.
The procedure of the perpetrators and the associated high damage illustrate the need for adequate insurance protection and the attention that the business should point to security measures. In times when crime increases in this form, prevention is the bid of the hour.
