Lately, two incidents in Hemer have been causing concern and discussions about the security in the city. While theft in a fashion business concerns the topic of personal security of citizens, the disappearance of a life -saving device raises questions about community responsibility.

Theft in the fashion business: What happened?

Last Saturday, during a shopping tour in a local fashion business, a 63-year-old woman from Hemer was stolen her wallet. Unnoticed, she only noticed at the entrance to the store that her shoulder bag had become "easier". Although she initially hesitated to file a complaint, her wallet was found again in the town hall on Tuesday - a man had brought it to the police. Apparently only the cash was missing, while personal papers remained in their wallet, which made it possible to trace the legitimate owner.

The police have given urgent advice in this context: it is important to file a theft indicator, since the lock of bank cards does not always cover all the possibilities of theft. Special care applies when carrying the PIN in your wallet, because in such cases thieves can access the ATM directly. By closing a kuno, the police can also prevent further purchases from being made with stolen cards.

Defibrillator theft: A danger to the general public

Another worrying incident occurred at the municipal initial reception facility on the Apricker, where a defibrillator was stolen. The life -saving device, which should be available quickly in an emergency, is freely accessible, which may have led to its theft. An urban employee made the theft noticeable on Monday. In an emergency, the absence of a defibrillator can have serious consequences for the people concerned and the community, which is why a strong security awareness is also required here.

conclusion

The two incidents in Hemer throw a light on larger security questions, both on an individual level and in terms of public security. Citizens are called up to be vigilant and actively act in theft. In addition, the appropriate management of medical emergency devices should be considered to prevent a loss of such vital devices and to protect the health of the community.
