Thieves make big prey: 1800 liters of beer in Lohmar and Niederkassel stolen!

In the Rhein-Sieg district, two spectacular thefts caused excitement last week. Unknown perpetrators have stolen large amounts of beer and schnapps, while the foolish days of the carnival are celebrated in the region. After initial investigations, the incidents in Lohmar and Niederkassel may be connected.

in Lohmar there was theft in the night from February 28th to February 28th, in which 46 barrels of beer - a total of over 1000 liters - and 16 beverage crates were stolen from a cooling trailer. The cooling trailer was parked in the Birk district at Eppendorfer Platz. A damaged person found that the trailer was still undamaged on Thursday at 10:00 a.m., while he was already fully looted on Friday at 10:00 a.m. The perpetrators had expanded the door of the trailer to get to the drinks, reports the Rundschau Online .
