In Guxhagen, a shocking armed robbery unfolded at a beverage market on the night of October 26, 2024, when a group of masked assailants threatened the cashier with a gun and stole cash from the till. As the perpetrators fled the scene, authorities launched a swift investigation led by the Homberg Criminal Police and the Kassel Public Prosecutor’s Office. The inquiry quickly zeroed in on a group of suspects from the Schwalm-Eder-Kreis and Berlin.
On October 31, 2024, police executed search warrants and apprehended four suspects, including two juveniles and two young adults aged 18 and 19. While the younger suspects were released due to a lack of grounds for detention, the older individuals were remanded into custody following a ruling by the Fritzlar district judge. Extensive evidence was recovered during the searches, adding to the case against these alleged criminals. For more details, see the report on www.presseportal.de.
