Car break-in in Freiburg leads to preliminary arrest; Police seek witness accounts for further investigation

In the heart of Freiburg, a mysterious incident unfolded on New Year's Eve, 2024, at the parking lot of a sports park on Ensisheimer Street. The Freiburg Police - North took over the investigation, focusing on the suspicious activities that took place near the ice rink.

Upon arrival, patrol officers discovered that a side window of a car on the parking lot had been smashed. The suspects, who were observed acting suspiciously around parked vehicles, were reported to have fled towards an adjacent row of houses on Berliner Allee.

In the immediate aftermath, a 15-year-old suspect was provisionally arrested near the crime scene. However, it remains unclear if anything was stolen from the smashed car. The investigation is ongoing to confirm this detail.

The investigation is being conducted at the sports park on Ensisheimer Street, and according to current investigations, no other vehicles on the parking lot were broken into. Witnesses are asked to contact the police at 0761 882-4221 with any information about the case or other suspects.
