In a series of incidents that have occurred in the past few days, authorities in Baden-Württemberg are seeking the public's help in several investigations.

On Monday evening, a traffic accident took place at the exit of Oberstetten in Reutlingen. The accident involved a 69-year-old cyclist on a three-wheeled recumbent bicycle and a VW driven by a woman. The cyclist was injured and sought medical treatment for severe injuries. Witnesses are being sought to provide more information about the incident. The police in Reutlingen can be contacted at 07121/942-1111 during regular hours, and 07121/942-2224 outside these hours. The Gomaringen police station has taken over the investigation.

In a separate incident, a break-in occurred at a medical practice in Dusslingen overnight from Monday to Tuesday. Initial findings suggest that the intruder gained access to the practice rooms by force. The unknown person searched through the cabinets in the practice rooms, but the extent of the damage and what was taken remains unclear.

In Tübingen, a handyman is suspected of stealing jewellery from an elderly woman on Monday morning. The culprit gained access to the woman's apartment by claiming he had to perform checks and asking for a glass of water. The police in Tübingen are asking for tips about the theft and warn against methods used by tricksters to gain access to homes to steal valuables.

Finally, in Reutlingen, a dark VW is being sought in connection with another incident. The culprit who caused the accident on Monday evening with the elderly pensioner on the three-wheeled recumbent bike and subsequently fled has not been publicly identified. The police describe the suspect as approximately 35 to 40 years old, around 160 to 165 cm tall, slim, with a dark complexion, short black hair, wearing long pants, a white T-shirt, and a black baseball cap. The police in Reutlingen are asking for information about the dark VW and its driver, or any witnesses who were first responders at the scene.
