Four men rob holes of a lottery business in Berlin-Mitte with a firearm
In Berlin-Mitte, four men threatened and robbed the holder of a lottery business with a firearm. The 48-year-old man was on the Wedding district in Equierstrasse and had the daily income with him when he was attacked by the perpetrators, as the police said.
The robbers took the money and then fled in a rental vehicle. The 48-year-old man followed the perpetrators together with a witness and put an emergency call in parallel to inform the police.
The police finally stopped the escape vehicle on the A100 near the Siemensdamm driveway. Two of the alleged robbers aged 20 and 22 were arrested, while the other two suspects were able to escape.
Part of the stolen money was later found, according to a police spokeswoman. The investigation into the case continues.
The crime triggered concern in the population, as armed robberies are a danger to security. However, the Berlin police acted quickly and professionally by stopping the escape vehicle on the highway and already arrested two suspects.
It shows again how important it is to immediately alert the police in such incidents and to provide the most accurate information as possible. By rapidly acting the victim and support of the witness, the police were able to successfully stop the fleeing of the perpetrators.
The population is called to inform the police in the event of suspicious perceptions or observations in order to effectively counter crime.
The topics that this incident throws are, among other things, the Berlin police, robbery, robbery, firearm and the district of Wedding. It remains to be seen how the investigation will develop and whether the two fleeting suspects can still be caught.
