In the city of Emmerich am Rhein, on Tuesday morning, September 3, 2024, burglary occurred on a construction site area. In the period between 5:00 p.m. on Monday and 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday, unknown perpetrators gained access to the construction site on Karl-Arnold-Straße. The crime of this kind has increased in many cities in recent years.

The perpetrators stole a special cable drum that was provided with a blue locker and an orange cable. In addition, they also damaged the cable of a cargo elevator, which may not only cause financial damage, but could also delay the work on the construction site. Such incidents often hit small construction companies particularly hard because they are dependent on fast equipment and also put a strain on repair costs.

Investigations and witness call

The Commission for Crime in Emmerich is now faced with the challenge of identifying the perpetrators and taking account of the account. In an official statement, the Kripo asks for information from the population. Witnesses who have seen something or have information about the stolen objects are asked to report on 02822 7830.

The investigation is of great importance to strengthen the feeling of security in the region and prevent further crimes of this kind. The police appeal to all citizens to be vigilant and report suspicious activities immediately.

In the digital era, it is not uncommon for the police to use social media to sensitize the public for more security. The Kleve district police are active on platforms such as Facebook and Twitter and calls on the citizens to cooperate to reduce the crime rate.
