E-scooter robbery: Unknown people break into Ilmenauer Keller!

An interesting incident occurred in the town of Ilmenau last week that caught the attention of authorities and the public. Unknown perpetrators broke into the basement of an apartment building and stole an e-scooter. The crime took place between October 2nd and 9th, 2024. It is unfortunate that at a time when mobility solutions such as e-scooters are becoming increasingly important, such criminal activities are increasing.

The perpetrators, whose identity is still unknown, gained access to a cellar on “Am Stollen” street. They managed to force open a door. The e-scooter, a model from the “Xiaomi” brand, is worth around 500 euros. Not only is this stolen vehicle a loss for the owner, but it also raises questions about the safety of residential storage areas.

The police have already launched an investigation and are looking for witnesses who might have information about the crime or the perpetrators. Information can be reported to the Arnstadt/Ilmenau police station on 03677-601124, including the reference number 0262142/2024. Every little piece of information could be crucial to solving this criminal incident and possibly catching the perpetrators.
