Six arrests: attempted departure at the cigarette machine in Bad Hersfeld!

Bad Hersfeld, Deutschland - The authorities in Bad Hersfeld were kept on the last night. As ffh reported, two groups of perpetrators, in two consecutive nights, tried a cigarette machine in the back yard of a shisha-bar to break open. Six men were involved in the criminal machinations and ultimately had to bear the consequences of their actions.

The first incident occurred on Tuesday night when three black -clad and masked men aged 31 to 36, all from Hünfeld, targeted the machine. An attentive witness noticed the suspicious activities and promptly informed the police. Just 15 minutes after the hint, the team was on site and arrested the men when they were at the same time to run away. In the course of the investigation, a vehicle was also searched for one of the suspects, with drugs such as amphetamine and metamphetamine being secured.

This group was also quickly arrested by the police. As Hersfelder Zeitung , the attempted breaking of the machine was soon observed that the officials were soon ready for use. It remains unclear whether there is a connection between the two groups of perpetrators or whether they acted independently.
