Enjoygoing robbery in Buchholz: Who is the victim of the handbag attack?

in Buchholz, an incident is currently causing puzzle rates among the authorities. On Friday evening, shortly after 8 p.m., a teenager was arrested by the police on Rütgerstrasse near the Blue Bridge. The accusation: he is said to have robbed an older woman's handbag. But the case has some remarkable discrepancies.

The act is said to have occurred a good 600 meters away on the Breite Strasse. Two passers -by reported that they heard a cyclist who called for help and pointed out to a fleeing adolescent. This young person was supposedly the one who had snatched the handbag from the older lady, but the victim himself has so far been hidden.

The lack of evidence

Another unusual detail: Despite the arrest of the young person, there was no prey in his possession. The police carried out a search for the escape route, on which the suspect could possibly have disposed of the handbag, but it remained without any traces.

In addition, the cyclist, who could have served as a witness to the crime, and the woman, the victim of the alleged assault, did not report. The police therefore have no choice but to look for this disappeared witness. You will be asked to report any information on the crime on 04181-2850.

It remains to be seen whether the young person, whose arrest was pursued by witnesses, actually committed a robbery or whether another explanation for the chain of events can be found. The incident raises questions that will probably remain in the dark until clarification by the investigation.
