Young people in Lohne victims of predatory extortion - witnesses wanted!

In the dark night from Saturday, between 2 a.m. and 3 a.m., a 16-year-old from Dinklage experienced a nightmare on Dinklager Strasse in Lohne. On his pedelec, which was supposed to bring him safely through the streets, he suddenly became the destination of the brazen robber! A passing car stopped, and what happened then is shocking.

Three masked men jumped out of the vehicle and brutally pushed the unsuspecting youngsters. Faced with a brazen demand for cash, the boy had no choice but to hand over his money. As soon as he had handed over the required sum, the perpetrators fled into the night in a small car - and disappeared without a trace.
