Thieves in nursing home! 39-year-old caught red-handed after theft
In a worrying wave of thefts in care facilities in Schwerin, a 39-year-old man was caught red-handed last Friday. Police received a tip from an alert nurse who observed the suspect stealing a wallet from a resident's room. This happened in the context of several thefts that had previously been detected in city facilities, such as NDR reports.
After the incident, the man was arrested by Schwerin police officers. When searching the suspect, the police found, in addition to the wallet, gold-colored jewelry, 350 euros in cash and several credit cards that did not belong to him. These findings raise the question of whether he may have been involved in other burglaries in the previous days News.de highlights.
Return from prison
The 39-year-old, a German citizen, was released from the Bützow correctional facility just a few days ago. The police immediately began an investigation to investigate possible connections to other burglaries in Schwerin. It is not the first time that the police in the city have faced such incidents, making the situation more difficult for residents of the care facilities.
After the police measures were completed, the suspect was brought before the magistrate, who issued an arrest warrant. In a city where security is particularly important, theft from care facilities is a topic that stirs people's minds and raises the question of how such incidents can be prevented in the future. The criminal police will continue to investigate in the coming weeks whether the suspect is connected to other crimes.
The events in Schwerin remind us of the importance of community vigilance. An attentive nurse not only prevented a crime here, but may also have restored a sense of security to other residents in the facility. A further appeal to all residents to be vigilant and, if in doubt, to alert the police could help prevent similar incidents in the future.
