Criminal apprehended in break-in incident

In the heart of Braunschweig, a shocking incident took place on a Monday morning, August 18, 2025. A break-in was reported at an inner-city school located on Oswald-Berkhan-Straße.

The security company employee, patrolling the area, noticed a suspicious bicycle and unusual noises coming from the school building around 03:30h. Alerted by this, they immediately contacted the police.

The police were on the scene within minutes, securing the area and collecting evidence. Upon investigation, they discovered a 51-year-old man hiding near the school. The man was found with burglary tools and suspected stolen goods, leading initial investigations to suggest he is the burglar who broke into the school.

The break-in was in progress at the time the police were alerted, and the extent of the damage inside the school is still not clear. The man was temporarily arrested.

The 51-year-old man, a local resident of Braunschweig, now faces charges of aggravated theft. For further inquiries, please contact the Braunschweig Police Press Office.

The time the police were alerted about the break-in was around 01:30h, and the break-in occurred on a Monday morning. Inside the school building, several forced doors and open cabinets were found.

This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and security, especially in our educational institutions. The community of Braunschweig awaits further updates on this ongoing investigation.
