Weekly police control focus on e-scooters: uncertainty regarding riding privileges, motorcycle theft witness sought, and additional details
In the past few days, the Polizeipräsidium Südosthessen in Offenbach am Main has been actively investigating several incidents in the region.
On Wednesday night, between 10 PM and 8 AM on Thursday, four riding saddles were stolen from a riding facility located on Stehnweg in Froschhausen. The police are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding this theft and are asking for any tips or witness reports. Those with information are encouraged to contact the police station in Seligenstadt.
In another incident, a motorcycle theft occurred in the area of Karlstraße (30s house numbers) in Offenbach on Wednesday afternoon around 4 PM. The stolen motorcycle, a black Yamaha, was later found in a wooded area near the Darmstadt highway in Frankfurt. The perpetrators may have manipulated the ignition lock of the motorcycle, and the police are investigating this matter.
Meanwhile, in Ober-Roden, four suspected donation fraudsters were provisionally arrested on Thursday afternoon for pretending to collect money for people with disabilities. The police are investigating the exact circumstances surrounding this case.
Unfortunately, thefts of construction machinery and vehicles have also been on the rise. On Wednesday, between 6 PM and 7:30 AM on Thursday, construction machinery worth 30,000 euros was stolen from an Iveco-Sprinter in the Hessenring area of Offenbach. The police are looking for witnesses who can provide information about this theft.
The police are also keeping a close eye on the topic of e-scooters due to increased accidents and thefts. Recently, the Heusenstamm police station conducted a control week focusing on e-scooters, during which over 80 persons were controlled, including e-scooter drivers. Several were charged with administrative offenses and criminal charges.
