Unscrupulous Artisans Swindle Elderly Female Residents in Poland
In the quiet town of Herne, Germany, two burglaries targeting elderly women occurred on August 27, 2020, approximately 500 meters apart from each other.

A second false water worker struck half an hour later in the Rosenring area, stealing jewelry from a 90-year-old woman in a similar manner. The suspect in this incident is described as being between 30 and 40 years old and approximately 170-175 cm tall. He was wearing long dark pants, a black cap, and an orange safety vest.
