Armed robbery on snacks: man after searching at the train station!

on May 6, 2025, around 2:30 p.m., a suspected robbery attempted in a fast snack on St.-Viti-Straße in Uelzen. A 42-year-old man threatened the seller with a knife and demanded cash. Fortunately, the seller was able to flee to a nearby business while the attacker fled towards the train station.

Thanks to an extensive search, the perpetrator was discovered and checked on a train at the Uelzen train station. In his pocket, the police found a pocket knife as well as several original packaged perfumes and two headphones, from which the officials assume that they were previously stolen. The pocket knife does not come from the seller's threat. The already known suspect was temporarily arrested, while the investigation is continued by the crime and investigation service in Uelzen.
