In a troubling incident near Bremen, a bank in Stuhr has once again been targeted by thieves, who managed to gain access through a light shaft during the bank's lunch break. According to the police in Diepholz, the exact amount of valuables taken remains unclear, and currently, there are no leads on the perpetrators. This incident adds to the growing concern about security in banks, particularly given similar events in the region on the rise.

The break-in occurred when the suspects broke into the bank's basement, where they forced open several doors to access the safes. This method raises alarms regarding the security measures implemented at the bank, especially following a significant heist in late December 2022, involving a large number of safes being compromised in Gelsenkirchen, North Rhine-Westphalia. In that case, thieves made off with millions in gold, cash, and other valuables, underlining a pattern of sophisticated bank break-ins in Germany.

The local community is expressing unease about these repeated incursions, leading to discussions about reinforcing security protocols and enhancing vigilance among bank employees. Additionally, reports indicate that some bank staff complained of feeling unwell during the break-in, potentially highlighting the stress such situations place on employees. As authorities continue their investigation, the public is eager for updates regarding the culprits and measures being taken to prevent future incidents.
