Man aged 33, equipped with a digital key for motor vehicles, found circulating on public streets of Dusseldorf's Königsallee
In the heart of Düsseldorf, an unusual incident unfolded on Tuesday, 18th February, on Königsallee. A 33-year-old Lithuanian man was observed showing interest in parked cars and tampering with their doors and trunks, using a "Key-Grabber" to intercept vehicle key signals.
The day began with the man targeting an Audi on Königsallee. He later approached a BMW, opening both the driver's door and the trunk. The officers, who had become aware of the suspect's activities, watched as he removed a black shopping bag from the trunk of a Volkswagen on an unspecified day after Tuesday, 18th February, on Wagnerstraße.
The police also observed the suspect tampering with a third car on Wagnerstraße, but further investigations revealed that the Lithuanian had taken nothing from the BMW or Audi. During a search, the officers found a "Key-Grabber," several smartphones, and other unspecified items.
The man was arrested on the spot and will be presented to the investigating judge on Wednesday. However, the available search results do not provide information about the name of the Lithuanian. No information was provided about any other vehicles the Lithuanian may have targeted after the Volkswagen on Wagnerstraße.
This incident serves as a reminder to be vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the authorities. The police are urging the public to keep their vehicles secure and to be aware of their surroundings, especially in crowded areas.
As the investigation continues, more details about the incident and the suspect are expected to be released. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
