Burglary act in Kronskamp: valuable jewelry and cash stolen!
Especially in today's world, when burglaries are on the rise, it is essential to take your own security seriously. A remarkable incident occurred in Henstedt-Ulzburg that made everyone sit up and take notice. According to information from news.de, there was a break-in in a single-family home in Kronskamp between October 13th, 8 a.m., and October 14th, 1 p.m. The perpetrators managed to force their way into the house and searched the premises for valuables.
In this brazen act, they stole jewelry, cash and other valuables, the exact value of which has not yet been determined. Apparently the thieves were well prepared as they appear to have provided a vehicle to transport the larger items. The Pinneberg criminal police have taken over the investigation and are asking anyone who has noticed anything unusual in the vicinity of Kronskamp to contact them by calling 04101-202-0 or sending an email to SG4.Pinneberg.KI@polizei.landsh.de.
Current burglary data and prevention
A look at the police crime statistics (PKS) 2024 shows that residential burglaries have increased overall in Germany. Statistically speaking, a break-in occurs every seven minutes. The figures show that rates in urban regions in particular are up to three times higher than in rural areas. In urban areas with over 500,000 inhabitants, over 24,000 burglaries were recorded. This shows that it is worth thinking about security measures to protect yourself from such incidents as notrufexperten.de describes.
The investigation in Henstedt-Ulzburg is not the only incident in the region. On July 3rd, an apartment burglar in Pinneberg was caught red-handed by an attentive neighbor. A 64-year-old resident observed the perpetrator breaking into a ground floor apartment through a tilted window. Despite the rapid response of the police to arrest the perpetrator, adequate security measures were not taken to prevent a break-in, as stated in the report shz.de described.
It is important to note that tilted windows and inadequately secured doors rarely provide good protection against burglary. Citizens are urged to be vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the police immediately. Effective security measures such as burglar-resistant doors, windows, motion detectors and video surveillance can help increase security and deter burglars.
Especially in view of these incidents, all households should think more intensively about the issue of burglary protection. Preventative measures are the be-all and end-all these days, especially in a region where burglaries are commonplace. Stay alert!
