Youths also used knives to threaten peers during Saarbrücken robbery series

Eight robberies targeting peers were recorded in central Saarbrücken between 17 December 2024 and 4 January 2025. Police said youths threatened victims with knives, a blank-firing gun and a baton, among other means, or assaulted them with punches in order to obtain cash and valuables. Investigators identified three minor suspects. Arrest warrants were sought for two of them; one was arrested in mid-January, and another minor was taken to a correctional facility after appearing before a court on 27 January. Police said their investigation was largely complete.
