Mass theft in Crailsheim: tires worth tens of thousands of euros stolen!

In the Schwäbisch Hall region, several notable crimes have occurred in the last few days, which are causing concern among the population. The police have started an investigation and are asking for information from the public.

On Wednesday evening, between 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m., there was a large-scale theft on the premises of a car dealership on Roßfelder Straße in Crailsheim. Unknown perpetrators stole several sets of tires from the vehicles on display there. The value of the loot amounts to tens of thousands of euros, making this incident a significant financial loss for the car dealership. Witnesses who can provide information about the incident are asked to contact the Crailsheim police station on the telephone number 07951 4800 to report. The investigation began immediately in order to catch the perpetrators as quickly as possible and prevent further damage. Blicklokal reports on this development.

Burglary in residential building

In addition to the theft at the car dealership, a break-in was reported at a residential building on Rubensstrasse in Schrozberg. The incident occurred on Thursday between 6:30 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. when the unknown perpetrator ransacked the entire apartment and escaped with unknown stolen goods. In this case, too, the police are asking for information from witnesses, which can also be sent to the Crailsheim police station.

The increase in burglaries and thefts in the region raises questions about the security situation. In addition to these incidents, other cities in the area are also dealing with similar criminal activity. A car dealership in Burg-Gemünden was targeted by burglars on the night of Wednesday, October 15th. Perpetrators pried open a window and searched cupboards, but left the car dealership without any loot, which left property damage amounting to around 200 euros. Information about this incident can be sent to the Alsfeld police station at the telephone number 06631 974-0 or given online. Press portal

Shock calls and scams

Another worrying case is the trick fraud in Wartenberg, where an elderly man received a call from a supposed police officer on Wednesday afternoon. The caller claimed that the man's daughter had been involved in a fatal traffic accident and demanded a deposit of tens of thousands of euros. The fraud became apparent when the man contacted his son. The police give clear tips to prevent such fraud attempts: Be suspicious of callers who do not introduce themselves by name, hang up if money is requested, use known telephone numbers to call back and inform relatives about such waves of calls.

Police advise the community to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity immediately. The combination of theft, burglary and fraud illustrates the need to keep an eye on your own safety and the safety of friends and neighbors.
