Senior citizen robbed at home

An 82-year-old woman was robbed in her home in the Marxstraße on Friday, 14th July, 2017 between 10.40am and 11.10am.

It appears that whilst one of the thieves used a cover story to gain access to the flat and distract her, the second thief went looking for valuables in the bedroom.  They then fled with several thousand Euros worth of items.

Detectives in Bad Homburg would like anyone with information to call them on 06172 1200.

Pensioner oversaw U-Bahn

A 86-year-old cyclist was travelling along the Freiligrathstraße from the Feldbergstraße towards the Herzbergstraße and had to cross the U-Bahn tracks.  At this point there is a pedestrian crossing which according to police was showing red.

Apparently the man did not notice the U-Bahn which was passing at the time and hit the side of the last carriage.  He was slightly injured and 50 Euro of damage was caused to the bicycle.

The line was closed for 35 minutes during which time a replacement service was set up.
