Sensational cemetery theft: bronze figures worth 10,000 euros disappeared!
In very unfortunate news, a brazen theft causes excitement in the small community of Huchenfeld. Unknown people removed several valuable bronze figures from the local cemetery between June 1st and 15th, which has affected the police and residents alike. The total value of the stolen figures is estimated at over 10,000 euros, as bnn.de reports.
The loss of an angel figure and two Madonna statues is particularly tragic. These works of art are not only religious symbols, but also masterpieces of craftsmanship that decorated the tombs. With a height of almost half a meter, the figures had to be unscrewed with tools - a clear indicator that the perpetrators had prepared well. The Tiefenbronn police station has taken over the investigation and is asking for information from the public.
