Three thieves gained access a property in the Münzenburgstraße in Gonzenheim on Saturday, 15th July, 2017 at 3.20am. Although a property was protected by a gate, the key to the gate was in the lock.
Once inside, they removed a white E-Bike and a blue and white mountain bike. Although the E-Bike had a lock, neither of the bicycles was locked up.
The owner of the property heard the noises and made the thieves aware of his presence, after which they left with the bicycles but left two other bicycles behind in the process that are now with Oberursel’s police.
The stolen bicycles are worth about €2,800 together.
