in Alfeld, on Wednesday evening, July 31, 2024, there was a remarkable incident that affects not only the local police, but also the residents and those responsible for the kindergarten. Between 8:15 p.m. and 8:25 p.m., a construction site on the Eimser Weg, near the number 95 a, was the target of Langfingern.
The crime and its protagonists
Three young people aged 15, 17 and 18 from Hanover tried to steal several copper pipes from the construction site. An attentive neighbor was able to observe the crime and alert the police, which finally led to the suspect's arrest. The Alfeld police were not asked for long and found the gray VW Golf the perpetrator shortly after the crime. In this vehicle, 29 sections on copper pipes and copper cables were discovered and secured.
The reaction of the police
The responsible officials addressed the 18-year-old to the origin of the copper pipes, whereupon he stated that he had received the permission of a beneficiary, but this requires further review. After completing the police measures and initiating criminal proceedings, the young perpetrators were released due to a lack of prison grounds. The legal guardians were also informed about the incident.
a call to the community
The police call up further witnesses to the incident. Interested parties can contact the Alfeld police on 05181/8073-0. Such calls are crucial for the investigation of crimes and for the security of the community.
The importance of clarification and prevention
The incident not only shows the challenges that arise from colored metal thefts, but also the need for a stronger community. Such thefts can have significant consequences for local projects and their financing. In order for these to be carried out successfully, the entire population is asked to focus on suspicious activities in their neighborhood.
FAZIT
The feedback from the Alfeld citizens is essential to prevent future incidents and to ensure a safe environment for everyone. This type of offense not only aims at material goods, but also influences the confidence in the security of the community.
