Hedge in Ketzin is burning: Police on a large scale operation!

In the last few days, the police in Havelland have again had to deal with various incidents. The press reports from July 11, 2025 show a colorful mix of crime and events that influence the everyday lives of citizens.

A fire in Ketzin caused a stir when a hedge on a residential building burst into flames. Fortunately, no one was injured and firefighters were able to quickly extinguish the fire. This type of incident has become rare in recent years, but according to maz-online.de, attention to such fires remains essential.

Incident during a test drive

The case in Falkensee, where a customer took a car for a test drive and didn't return afterwards, is no less bizarre. The police have already launched a search for the missing Skoda Octavia after the car dealership filed a complaint. Such incidents suggest that caution should be exercised not only in everyday life, but also when buying a car.

Crime in the neighborhood

Security in the region is always an issue. In Spandau, a 22-year-old was the victim of an attack by several boys in Münsinger Park. His fanny pack containing cash and personal items was snatched away with punches and a knife. Such violent crimes raise questions and affect residents' sense of security. As unserhavelland.de reports, such incidents are not new, even if the police are trying to bring the situation under control.

Another worrying event became known with a case of fraud in Wustermark, where an 86-year-old was the victim of a telephone scam. The unknown perpetrator pretended that her daughter had been in a fatal accident, which led the woman to hand over 50,000 euros. Fraud is increasing in Germany and is part of the statistics, which will already show an increase of over 1.7 million registered crimes in 2024, according to statista.com.

Current police reports

The police reports also include reports of traffic accidents, burglaries and violent crimes. An example of this is the case of a 14-year-old cyclist who had to be taken to hospital after a collision with a fleeing pedestrian. These types of incidents make citizens think about both safety and possible protective measures. Police urge everyone to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity.

In summary, recent incidents in the region directly affect everyone and highlight the need for increased vigilance and neighborly cooperation. The police in Havelland remain in contact with citizens and are available to answer questions at any time.

For help in emergencies, the police remind you of the emergency numbers 110 for the police and 112 for the emergency services.
