In the heart of Bochum city centre, a disturbing incident occurred on Saturday, August 30, at approximately 11:20 PM. A 19-year-old resident of Herne was robbed in the area of Südring/Universitätsstraße.

The Bochum Criminal Investigation Department 31 is currently investigating the case and has identified two suspects. However, their names and descriptions have not been released in the available search results.

The suspects are described as thin, with very short blonde hair. One of them was wearing a dark jacket. It is believed that the robbery was targeted, as the suspects demanded the victim's football club fan shirt under threat of violence.
