Burglary on the bright day: Put the perpetrator in the pedestrian zone!

On Thursday afternoon, exactly at 2:15 p.m., a glasses business in the pedestrian zone of Zweibrücken experienced a dramatic slump. A single perpetrator threw a stone through the shop window and hastily grabbed the business of the business to steal valuable goods. But the action did not go unnoticed: several passers -by who observed the incident shot immediately and were able to stop the perpetrator until the police arrived. Fortunately, the situation was not quite as dramatic as it could have been. The 37-year-old was taken to a hospital after he was in a "psychological exceptional situation". The Pirmasens criminal police have taken over the investigation in this matter, reports the Rheinpfalz .

A burglary can, however, have more drastic effects. Psychological consequences are often serious in the victims. According to an investigation into Basel insurance, almost 70 % of the burglary victims suffer from psychological problems that go far beyond disgust. Women are often particularly affected, and fears increase with increasing age. The list of possible psychological consequences of a break -in is long and includes anxiety disorders, panic attacks, sleep disorders and even depression as well as social isolation. These numbers throw a shocking light on reality for many affected people, such as the website wmn.de emphasized.

The consequences of a break -in

A particularly drastic experience describes Sarah Kuhnt, who was victim of a burglary two years ago in Berlin. An unknown perpetrator got in via an open window and stolen valuable laptops. This not only led to material losses, but also left psychological scars. Kuhnt reported on persistent distrust and anxiety after the incident. Studies show that burglaries in Germany increased by 50% from 2006 to 2015, but they have been slightly declining since then. Often the crime scenes are not sufficiently secured, a fact that sociologist Gina Rosa Wollinger also notes. The police have set up coordination bodies in many cities such as Berlin to prevent burglary offenses preventively. This shows that it is not only about direct information, but also long-term strategies are necessary to withdraw the ground to the perpetrators, such as taz.de reports.

Overall, fear remains a constant companion for many affected people, and the psychological consequences are often more stressful than the material loss itself. It is recommended to find help for a break -in, for example by talking to friends or therapists. The simple space of the apartment or mindfulness exercises can also help to regain your own security and well -being. A look at your own living situation can also be helpful when healing the psychological wounds, even if a move alone often does not bring the hoped -for solution.
