The police warn: E-scooter theft in Coburg – clues wanted!
On the night of December 18, 2024, an insurance license plate was stolen from an e-scooter in Coburg while it was parked in front of a fast food restaurant on Neustadter Straße. The incident happened between 8:20 p.m. and 8:45 p.m. when a previously unknown perpetrator took advantage of the owner's short absence. The Coburg police are asking for information on 09561/645-0 to find the thief Wiesentbote.de reported.
Vandalism and accidents
In addition to the theft, there was vandalism at a playground in Marktrodach, where unknown persons damaged playground equipment and left trash behind, causing damage of around 500 euros. There was also a hit-and-run accident on Güterstrasse in Kronach, where a car was damaged; the damage amounts to around 1500 euros. The police in Kronach are also asking for information on 09261/5030.
Of particular concern is the incident in which a 66-year-old driver was stopped for drink driving. During a check, a value of 0.8 per mille was found. This could have serious consequences for the man as he has repeatedly become suspicious. The police in Kulmbach are also investigating a 36-year-old man who was caught with narcotics during checks, while another 42-year-old allegedly had stolen perfume with him, as also reported by Wiesentbote.de reported.
Emergency numbers and important information
Which emergency call is important in such critical situations? An emergency call should be as precise as possible by giving exact locations, including street and house number. The mileage is particularly important on motorways. In Germany, the emergency number can be reached at 112, which provides free access to rescue workers throughout the European Union.
