Raid at the petrol station in Bochum-Höntrop: Witnesses wanted!

On Friday evening, October 11th, a robbery on a petrol station occurred in Bochum-Höntrop. The criminal police are looking for witnesses who may be able to provide information about the perpetrators. The incident occurred around 9:50 p.m. at Zollstraße 233 when two unknown men entered the gas station and threatened the employee there, a 20-year-old from Bochum, with a firearm and a folding knife.

The perpetrators demanded cash and also stole several cigarette packs before they fled in an unknown direction on foot. Immediate measures by the police, including a close -up search, did not lead to the suspect's arrest. So it remains unclear where the two men refered after the attack.

The perpetrators were described as follows: Both men were between 16 and 18 years old and spoke High German. One of the perpetrators had striking blue eyes and wore a white cloth that covered his mouth and nose. He was dressed with a white hoodie from the "Nike" brand, black trousers, white shoes and blue disposable gloves.

The second perpetrator was bigger and had blonde hair. He was masked, wore a black hat and was dressed in a gray sweater, a black jacket and blue jeans and black shoes. His gloves were also black and the "Adidas" brand. This detailed description could offer crucial information on the identification of the suspects.
