Burglars hit in Oschersleben: 4000 euros damage in family home!

In the past few days, several burglaries in the Oschersleben area have ensured increased willingness to alert among residents. On July 5, a neighbor of the police reported that it was broken into a family home in Anton-Harbort-Strasse. The unknown perpetrators had violently gained access over the patio door and looked for valuables in all rooms. Two safes were broken up, with which it has been unknown to what exactly has been stolen. The estimated damage amounts to around 4,000 euros. The Haldensleben police are hoping for information on the perpetrator and asking for contact on 03904/478-0, such as [sachsen-anhalt.de] (https://www.sachsen-anhalt.de/bs/pressemitteilungen/polizei?tx_tsarssinclude_pi1%5Baction%5D=single & tx_tsarssinclude_pi1%5BController%5D = base & tx_tsarssinclude_pi1%5BUID%5D = 583071 & chash = EC035B775467E7A60ADAD) reported.

Both the incident in the single -family house and an attempted theft at a petrol station in Haldensleben are in the context of a worrying trend. Between the 6th and 7th July, unknowns tried to break up money tapes in vacuum cleaner machines. Although the outer flaps could be opened, the padlocks remained intact, which shows that the perpetrators apparently had to be satisfied with quick access.

burglary in the waterworks

The break -in in the waterworks of Oschersleben last weekend is particularly serious. Here the perpetrators gained access to a fenced area and broke a garage from which several construction equipment was stolen, including a vibrating plate and several lawnmowers. The total damage is estimated at just under 25,000 euros. It is assumed that the thieves have removed the stolen material with a vehicle. Here, too, witnesses are asked to report to the police to provide further information ([mz.de] (mz.de).

The situation in Germany

These incidents throw a light on an alarming development in Germany's crime statistics. According to the current figures, there were around 119,000 cases of burglaries in 2023, including around 77,800 which were classified as violent burglaries. Although the numbers showed that the burglaries 2023 were reduced over 50 % compared to 2015, opportunities such as exhibitions of tools in such areas are very popular for burglars ([Statista.com] (https://de.statista.com/themen/2938/kriminalitaet-in-Deutschland-wohnungslucht theftahle/)).

The last break -ins in Oschersleben are a clear indication that vigilance is also offered in the region. The police appealed to the citizens of keeping their neighborhood in view and immediately reporting suspicious observations. As is well known, security starts in your own home, and together we can help strengthen the feeling of security in our communities.
