In the heart of Euskirchen, Germany, an unusual incident has taken place. On Tuesday, 19th August, at around 7:05 AM, two manhole covers went missing from Gottfried-Disse-Straße/Henri-Dunant-Straße.

The traffic commission has initiated investigations into this matter, with the ongoing probe focusing on the missing manhole covers. It appears that these covers were thrown into a nearby sewer shaft, causing a significant disruption to the traffic flow.

Removing manhole covers is a dangerous act, as it disrupts traffic in a harmful manner. This is a point that the Euskirchen police have been emphasizing, stating that it is not a harmless prank. The open sewer shaft poses a significant risk, particularly for cyclists and motorcyclists.

Fortunately, no road users were reported injured due to the missing manhole covers. The incident, however, has caused a stir in the community, with the traffic commission and the police urging witnesses with any information to come forward.

Witnesses can contact the Euskirchen police at 02251 799 0 or alternatively, they can email the police at [email protected]. The individuals responsible for the incident have yet to be identified.

The traffic commission is working diligently to ensure the safety of the roads and to find those responsible for the missing manhole covers. The public is reminded to report any suspicious activities to the authorities to maintain the safety and integrity of the city's infrastructure.
