Young man beats pizza owner in Hagen when attempted robbery!

On Monday evening, April 28, 2025, there was a dramatic incident in a pizzeria on the high street: a 22-year-old tried to steal the cash register! Shortly before the shop, around 10 p.m., the man entered the restaurant and jumped directly to the cash register area. The owner, a 55-year-old, spoke to him and held him due to the suspicion of theft. Instead of joining himself, the young perpetrator hit the restaurant owner and fled towards Potthofstrasse.

But that wasn't the end of the story! At the nearby synagogue, the fleeting thief met police officers and claimed to be innocent. But the alarm bells already rang: the pizza owner and a passer -by pursued him and told the officials what had actually happened. The police started the investigation and initiated a procedure against the 22-year-old. A blow that not only set a sign for the owner, but also for the residents: crime is not tolerated here!
