More motorcycle thefts in the Mettmann district, this time a Harley is involved!
Monheim am Rhein crime scene
As the Mettmann district police authority has reported several times in the recent past, there has been an increase in motorcycle thefts from underground car parks in several cities in the Mettmann district in recent days and weeks. Between Friday afternoon, February 17th, 4:30 p.m., and Saturday morning, February 19th, 2022, 7:15 a.m., the police registered two stolen machines again - this time from an underground car park in Monheim am Rhein.
During this time, previously unknown criminals gained access to a normally locked underground car park at Krischerstrasse 87. In addition to a two-year-old, black Harley-Davidson, type Breakout 114, license plate SG-DA 85, with a current value of around 40,000 euros, the thieves also stole a two-year-old, blue Yamaha, type YZF-R3 (RH12, license plate OP-L 123, with a current value of around 6,000 euros.
How the perpetrators gained access to the underground car park, which is secured by a roller door and can only be accessed with a key, is currently the subject of police investigations. In order to be able to steal the motorcycles belonging to different owners, which were secured with their steering wheel locks, and in some cases with additional locks and alarm systems, they were probably loaded into an as yet unknown perpetrator vehicle of the appropriate size and transported away.
So far, the Monheim police have no concrete information about the vehicle thieves or the whereabouts of the stolen motorcycles. Police search and investigation measures were initiated in the immediate vicinity of the crime scene, but have not yet led to a positive result. Criminal proceedings and further investigations by the Monheim police were initiated, and both motorcycles and their license plates were put on an international search warrant. The police criminal investigation department is urgently looking for witnesses as part of its investigation and is therefore asking:
“During the specified period of the crime, who made suspicious observations in the area of the Monheim underground car park on Krischerstrasse or observed vehicles or a van and people who normally do not belong there?”
