Broad-daylight robbery in Offenbach leaves man injured as suspects flee on scooters
A 27-year-old man was violently robbed in broad daylight on a street in Offenbach. The attack happened on Thursday afternoon at around 4:25 p.m. on Friedensstraße. Police are now searching for three suspects who fled the scene on scooters.
The victim was approached by three young men who knocked him to the ground. They stole his crossbody bag, which was worth over €200, before escaping towards a nearby school. Witnesses reported seeing the suspects riding dark-coloured scooters.
The assailants are described as two men aged around 25 and 20, along with a third believed to be about 26 years old. The oldest suspect is approximately 1.80 metres tall and was wearing dark clothing, while one of the group stood out in a turquoise baseball cap. The second attacker, around 25, is stocky with short dark hair, and the youngest, about 20, is slim with short brown hair, dressed in a black-orange-white cardigan, black jogging pants, and light shoes. The criminal police have launched an investigation and are urging anyone with information to come forward. Witnesses can contact officers on +49 69 8098-1234.
The robbery remains under active investigation, with police still searching for the three suspects. Authorities have not yet publicly named the perpetrators but continue to appeal for witnesses who may have seen the attack or the men fleeing on scooters.
