Police operation in Dachau: Man hits your own car plate!

Police operation in Dachau: Man hits your own car plate!

on Saturday evening, June 22, 2025, there was an unusual police operation in Butiglstrasse in Dachau. Local residents reported around 9 p.m. and reported on two people who cut in with sticks on a parked car. When the police arrived, they found a 23-year-old man who had appeared at the scene. But the situation turned out to be far less dramatic than it initially seemed.

The 23-year-old had damaged his own car because he had forgotten his car key in the car and the vehicle closed itself. In order to get to the key, he apparently only saw the possibility to put a slice of his car. This led to the fact that the vehicle was not only metaphorically but also "broken up". The police were able to quickly clarify that there were no criminal intentions behind the incident, and the man was visibly affected by the rioting on his own car. The scenery caused a lot of smile among the officials, but such a procedure is not necessarily recommended.

vandalism in the district of Dachau

This incident is not isolated. In the past few days, reports on vandal files in the Dachau district have increased. As Merkur , several vehicles were damaged between 15 and 21. In doing so, strangers scratched an Audi and hit its taillight. Two other vehicle owners also found their cars with chosen windows last weekend-in Leipziger and Erich-Follenhauer-Straße in Dachau.

The police have taken over the investigation and is urgently looking for witnesses. Anyone who has information about one of the incidents is called on to contact 0 81 31/56 10. The total damage amounts to a low five -digit amount, which certainly does not leave the neighbors in the area.

The increasing crime in the region shows that it is important to remain vigilant. In an environment where neighbors still take care of each other and such incidents come into being, the community makes the community strong and defensive towards vandals. While there was a misunderstanding in the case of the 23-year-old, the focus should not be on the slight jokes, but on the serious protection of one's own values, no matter how petty they may appear.

Ultimately, it can be hoped that such nightly "tricks" in Dachau will soon be able to stay and the citizens can sleep more calmly again. A good knack in choosing the car key and a little more attention could help to avoid misfortunes.
