0213 – Dispute during parking search
Lechhausen – Yesterday Sunday (28.01.2024), an unidentified man verbally and physically confronted a 24-year-old driver on Linken Brandstraße.
At around 5:15 PM, the 24-year-old was searching for a parking space on Linken Brandstraße. As he was driving in the northeast direction towards Palmstraße, the unidentified man stood in the street to stop the 24-year-old. When the 24-year-old stopped, the unidentified man apparently hit the 24-year-old’s side mirror. This led to a verbal altercation between the two, during which the unidentified man allegedly hit the 24-year-old, causing minor injuries. The unidentified man then walked away.
The unidentified man was described by witnesses as follows:
- Male, 35-40 years old, approximately 170 cm tall, with a long black beard, wearing a gray sweater and a hat, speaking with an Eastern European accent
The police are now investigating for assault and property damage and ask for any information from witnesses at the telephone number 0821/323-2310.

At 7:00 PM, the police were informed about the smell of smoke at the event. The guests had already voluntarily left the premises as instructed by the event organizer. Upon arrival, the fire department found two burnt jackets and a burnt tobacco pipe, but no fire or smoke. Due to the smell of smoke, the event was temporarily halted.

At 3:00 PM, a police patrol stopped the man. The man showed signs of drug impairment. The officers arranged for a blood test and prevented the man from continuing to drive.
The police are now investigating for a violation of the road traffic regulations against the 23-year-old.
0217 – You always meet twice
Innenstadt – Yesterday Sunday (28.01.2024), a 41-year-old attempted to steal a bicycle twice.
At 11:15 AM, a passerby notified the police about a seemingly intoxicated cyclist on Heilig-Kreuz-Straße. Upon checking the 41-year-old cyclist, the officers found that the bicycle was still locked, and the 41-year-old had attempted to ride the locked bike. Additionally, the 41-year-old was intoxicated with over 1.1 per mille of alcohol. Since the 41-year-old could not unlock the bike on the spot and could not provide proof of ownership, the officers confiscated the bicycle.
A short while later, another passerby in Altes Kautzengäßchen saw the 41-year-old attempting to tamper with a bike lock again. After apparently failing to open the lock, he continued on foot. The officers, once again alerted, took the 41-year-old into custody to prevent further crimes.
Later that evening, the 41-year-old contacted the police and admitted that the first bike also did not belong to him. The police are now investigating for theft against the 41-year-old.

Göggingen – On Friday (26.01.2024), around 4:45 PM, an attempted break-in occurred.

As usual, the criminal police are investigating such cases and ask for information at 0821/323-3810.
0219 – Fire
Innenstadt – On Sunday (28.01.2024), a fire broke out on Pfladergasse.

The fire brigade quickly brought the fire under control. The current estimate is a damage in the mid-five-digit range.
The police are now investigating the cause of the fire. Initial findings suggest a technical defect in the chimney.
