Young thieves surprise residents when drinking drinks!

In a remarkable act of violence in Münster, a caravan was broken up last Friday at 5:30 p.m., which served as a beverage. On the street "Am Mäuseberg", two criminals, supported by an accomplice that stood outside, obviously had the goal of achieving a lavish prey: six six -fold soft drinks were stolen. However, the perpetrators were surprised by an attentive resident and determined to flee towards Goethestrasse. The two young people are estimated at an age of 14 to 16 and have a slim, Mediterranean appearance. The police ask for information on the incident and ask witnesses to contact the Commissioner 41 on 06071/9656-0. Main Echo reports on this incident, which represents another example of the increasing crime in the region.

In Weiterstadt, also in the night of Saturday, February 22nd, there was an incident in which several cars were broken up in a parking lot on Carl-Zeiss-Straße. Between 6 p.m. on Friday evening and 8:45 a.m. on Saturday morning, the perpetrators chose their victims. They hit the panes on three cars and opened the locks. They were able to steal eight complete wheels and four tires without rims. The flight went undetected, and the criminals probably used a transport vehicle. The police are also looking for witnesses here, which can contact the Commissioner 21/22 on 06151/969-0.

increasing crime in Germany

The present incidents fit in the context of a major problem in Germany. In 2023, crime rose by 5.5 % compared to the previous year, which corresponds to around 5.9 million offenses. According to the Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA), these are the causes of the increase: increasing mobility compared to Corona pandemic and the economic stress by inflation. This statistics illuminate the persistently high crime rates, which are particularly striking in North Rhine-Westphalia, Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg. The increase in suspects, of whom around 2.25 million were recorded in 2023, indicates an alarming development, especially among young people aged between the ages of 14 and 17, the number of which is over 207,000. Statista provides a comprehensive analysis of this situation.
