It’s unclear exactly when the lobster heist occurred, but sometime between Friday and Saturday of last week.
Then a lobster fisherman got rid of nine pieces, they were in a swamp in Hamburgsund in the municipality of Tanum, writes Bohusläningen.
Last weekend’s theft is the first to be reported during the season this year and the lobster theft is something that is repeated every year.
– Every year at this time we see what happens. But it is a crime with a large number of blacks, we want people to hear from us so that we know what happened and we can map the robberies, says Thomas Andersson, a cooperative boat police in the West, to the newspaper.
Difficult to protect
A swamp is a cage that is lowered into the sea after lobsters are caught, so that they are alive until eaten. They are always marked with the owner’s contact information, writes Bohusläningen.
Police say there is a dark figure regarding lobster robberies and believe it is difficult to protect yourself from them.
Thomas Andersson tells Bohusläningen that the public should pay attention to bridges.
– It is difficult to protect yourself from this crime, so it is important that you help us to snoop on the bridges and search a little more, and to report if you are exposed to crime. Only then can we convict someone of this crime, he tells the newspaper.
