In a brazen theft, thieves targeted a bank in Stuhr, Germany, breaking into the basement and stealing valuables from customer safety deposit boxes. Local police have reported that three men dressed in blue overalls were seen near the bank around the time of the break-in and are appealing for information from witnesses. Reports suggest that the suspects were spotted leaving the scene towards a dark car, although it remains unclear if they escaped in the vehicle or continued on foot.

This incident follows a significant heist that occurred just months earlier in Gelsenkirchen, signaling a disturbing trend of bank robberies in the region. In the previous incident, a gang was able to steal millions of pounds worth of assets by drilling into a secure vault during the holiday season. The timing and method of both crimes raise concerns about the security measures in place and the methods employed by thieves.

Authorities are emphasizing the importance of public assistance in solving these cases, particularly in light of the recent series of thefts that have raised alarms among financial institutions and the community. Police are urging anyone with information or who may have witnessed suspicious activity to come forward to help ensure safety and accountability in these matters.
