Arrest Made in Ongoing Series of Cellar Break-ins in Cologne
The Cologne police made an arrest on Friday night (15th August) in connection with a series of cellar break-ins that have been ongoing in the districts of Poll, Deutz, and Porz. Two men, aged 21 and 30, were apprehended during a cellar break-in in Humboldt/Gremberg.
The police have intensified their investigative measures in the right bank area due to these crimes. According to reports, there has been an increase in cellar break-ins, with eight more attempted break-ins occurring on Friday night alone. Numerous cellar units in multi-family houses have been violently opened, and stored items have been stolen.
The arrested men were found with suspected stolen goods, including a cordless drill, a grinding machine, and a toolbox. The police are likely to present this evidence of the suspected stolen goods to the judge during the presentation of the arrested men.
The police investigation into the cellar break-ins has intensified due to the ongoing nature of the crimes and the recent increase in attempted break-ins. The police are continuing their efforts to resolve the ongoing series of cellar break-ins in the districts of Poll, Deutz, and Porz.
The police have not yet announced any changes in their deployment strategy in response to the recent increase in attempted cellar break-ins. However, they have been focusing their efforts on the right bank deployment troop in response to the increase in cellar break-ins.
The police investigation into the cellar break-ins has also been expanded to determine the involvement of the arrested individuals in further incidents. The police are likely to question the arrested individuals about their potential involvement in the series of cellar break-ins and the attempted break-ins on Friday night.
The suspects being investigated by the criminal police for possible involvement in further trench lock placements in recent weeks are not specified in the provided information. The arrest of the two men is a result of the intensified investigative measures by the Cologne police in response to the cellar break-ins.
The arrested men will be presented to a judge today. The police have not yet confirmed whether the arrested individuals are directly linked to the eight attempted break-ins on Friday night. The police are not yet releasing any further details about the investigation.
