Burglary in Pinneberg: minting machine from Iduna passage stolen

In the quiet city of Pinneberg, a not so quiet incident occurred between 00:30 and 2:30 a.m. last Saturday, August 31, 2024. Unknown perpetrators broke into a shop on Elmshorner Straße and stole a minting machine. The slump was quickly identified as not everyday, since it was a targeted action that was probably carried out by two previously unknown people.

The perpetrators used a crazy window of the shop as an access for their break -in. Such acts not only leave material damage; They also help to affect the feeling of security in the neighborhood. How much money was lost due to the theft is still unclear. The police have already started investigations to determine the damage caused and to grasp the perpetrators.

suspicious find in the allotment garden

The same morning at 9:30 a.m., the officers of the Pinneberg police station received another call. The tenant of an allotment garden club had discovered a broken minting machine in his garden house. During the review, it quickly became clear that it was the identical machine that had been stolen a few hours earlier. This connection shows how important it is to keep your eyes and ears open. The direct connection between the burglary and the find in the garden shows that the perpetrators may not have had a far -reaching plan and quickly became unsure.

The police handed over the investigation to the criminal police in Pinneberg. This will now deal intensively with the case. The officials are aware that there may still be witnesses that could contribute to the investigation of the crime. The investigators ask the public to report if someone has noticed suspicious activities on Elmshorner Strasse, near the Iduna shopping center or in Eggerstedter Weg.

The police put the investigation particularly in the context of the increasing number of small crimes. It turns out that this type of break -ins not only aims at the material loss of business, but also undermines the general feeling of security in the community. If the perpetrators are not caught, this could not only reduce confidence in the security of the area, but also encourage further crimes.

Even if the minting machine is not a valuable object for some readers, the incident is an alarm sign that such acts can take place even in the usual and calm communities. The police are therefore urgently appealing to all citizens: be attentive, report suspicious observations and thus support the security forces in their work.

In times when the security awareness of the citizens is of great importance, it is all the more important that each individual perceives their responsibility. Anyone who has information or information about the incident can contact the police directly on 04101-202-0. Together we can try to maintain the feeling of security in our communities.
