BMW theft in Hofgeismar: Police are looking for witnesses for spectacular coup!

In the small town of Hofgeismar in the Kassel district, there was a remarkable incident on Wednesday night. Unknown perpetrators stole a black BMW M240i XDrive, which had a value of around 80,000 euros. The theft occurred in the “Kelzer Ring” street around 1 a.m.

The previously unknown thieves most likely used the so-called Keyless GO technology of the vehicle to open and start the car without violence. With this method, the radio signals of the car break are collected and then transferred to the vehicle, which facilitates the theft. The incident was only reported to the police around 5:40 a.m., according to which the vehicle owner found the loss.

The Kassel police immediately initiated a Europe -wide search after the stolen BMW. So far, however, these efforts have been unsuccessful. The investigation is continued by the Commissioner 21/22 of the Kassel criminal police, and the officials ask the population for help. In particular, witnesses are sought who noticed suspicious activities or vehicles in Hofgeismar on Wednesday night.

The investigators demand everyone who can provide information about the perpetrators or the whereabouts of the vehicle to report immediately on 0561 - 9100. The perpetrator's captivation has top priority for the police to prevent other potential thefts of this kind.

The technology of the Keyless GO systems that helped car thieves in this case is unfortunately not an isolated case. Criminals are increasingly approaching vehicles with modern technology to steal them, which also focuses on the safety standards of car manufacturers. It remains to be seen which measures are taken to prevent such incidents in the future, as www.presseportal.de reports .
