Between May 28th and June 5th, a total of five break-ins were recorded in Kaufbeuren, Mauerstetten, Westendorf and Neugablonz, including in commercial office buildings and a hypermarket. The perpetrators acted extremely ruthlessly and brutally, using leverage and stabbing tools to break open offices and cupboards. Cash and cigarettes were stolen, while two vehicles parked at construction sites in Neugablonz were the target of the attackers, from which high-quality construction machinery and tools were stolen. The resulting loot and property damage amounts to a high five-figure amount.
