The Bochum police caused a sensation with an unusual press release: “An open letter to a very, very lousy thief” was the title of Thursday’s report. So he turned to a stranger who is said to have robbed a disabled old man in Witten.

According to the authority, the letter generated an echo of help. There should now be a donation account for the man in his early 90s who was robbed.

The Bochum police directly addressed the alleged cheater, who is said to have taken his pension of more than 1000 euros from the major’s pocket, in the letter and literally insulted: »Do you know that you do not even lack the› honor of the thief ‹? You must be ashamed of yourself! “Many outlets picked up the story, a Cologne tabloid even as a headline on the front page.

This apparently generated great sympathy among the population: “The will to support the elder has left us speechless,” police said. You have received numerous emails. But it is important for the authority to “put the will to help on a serious basis.” The police themselves cannot accept or send donations. Therefore, we are in talks with various organizations “and we are confident that we will be able to name a donation account next week.”
