armed raid at petrol station

Two days earlier, on December 15, 2024, an armed man attacked the BFT petrol station in Paunsdorf, Leipzig. At around 9:45 p.m., the perpetrator entered the petrol station, threatened the two employees with pepper spray and a pointed item before taking a few hundred euros out of the till. Fortunately, both women were unharmed and were able to retire to the HR area. The police are now looking for witnesses who can provide information on the approximately 40-year-old, strongly built perpetrator, who appeared in dark clothing at the time of the crime, reports tag24.de .

The connection between these two incidents shows a worrying pattern of crime in the region. While a perpetrator was active in Röschitz with targeted license plate robbery, Leipzig is an attack in which violence was threatened. This raises questions about security in these areas.
