Burglary in Delmenhorst: Police are looking for witnesses after theft!
There is currently unrest in Delmenhorst because on Monday, June 16, 2025, a brazen break-in occurred in an apartment building on Bismarckstrasse. Between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m., unknown people managed to gain unauthorized access to an apartment and stole a wallet. Such incidents often not only cause material damage, but also affect the sense of security of those affected. This is also reflected in the increasing number of residential burglaries in Germany, which were estimated at around 119,000 in 2023, with a significant increase in residential burglaries over the last few years. Weser-Kurier reports that the police are now asking for the public's help and that anyone who has made observations or can provide information about the perpetrators should call the telephone number 0 42 21 / 1 55 90 should report.
The break-in itself took place in an apartment building that is located in a typical residential area of the city of Delmenhorst. While the exact circumstances of the break-in are still unclear, this incident highlights the ongoing problem of burglaries, which is worrying not only in Delmenhorst, but throughout Germany. According to Statista, urban federal states such as Bremen, Berlin and Hamburg record particularly high risks of burglary, which also affects Delmenhorst.
Police are calling for help
The police not only interviewed the witnesses, but also provided specific contact information for inquiries. Ronja Weser from the Delmenhorst/Oldenburg-Land/Wesermarsch police station is available to answer any questions on 04221-1559104 or by email at pressestelle@pi-del.polizei.niedersachsen.de. Quick contact could potentially provide crucial information in solving the crime.
Burglaries are also an enormous burden for the victims, as they are often associated with a loss of sense of security and psychological consequences. In fact, according to Presseportal, around 77,800 cases of residential burglary occurred in 2023, which is evidence of a worrying trend reversal. However, there are also bright spots: the overall clearance rate for all crimes is 58.4%, which gives hope that the situation will improve.
Given the hardships such a crime brings, it is even more important to be vigilant. Police advise people to be vigilant in neighborhoods and report suspicious activity immediately.
