In Germany, police are investigating the theft of about 300 kilograms of corn from a field. Two Ukrainian women have been detained on suspicion of the crime, while their alleged accomplice remains at large.
The incident occurred in Germany. A witness noticed three people picking corn on an agricultural field, after which they loaded the ears into a gray Ford Focus and drove off along a field road.
A man remembered the car’s license plate and reported what he had seen to the authorities. The information helped police identify the vehicle and locate the suspected participants of the theft.
Subsequently, law enforcement officers found a Ford Focus parked. Inside were two women. Upon seeing the police, they stepped out of the car and tried to flee on foot, but were detained after a few meters.
Initially the women attempted to hide their faces and provided false information to the police. During verification, one of them was found to have a bag containing three documents identifying a person.
As a result, police established that the detainees are 42- and 50-year-old residents of Essen, both Ukrainian citizens. A third participant, according to preliminary data, is a 55-year-old man from Essen, also a Ukrainian citizen. He remains at large.
During a search of the vehicle, police found a trunk fully loaded with ears of corn, as well as a folded rear seat on which part of the harvest lay.
A farmer arrived at the scene with a tractor and scales. The stolen corn was reloaded into the tractor bucket and weighed. The total weight of the loot amounted to about 300 kilograms.
The German police are currently investigating the circumstances of the theft and trying to determine the motives of the suspects. Special attention is paid to the fact that this concerns unripe feed corn.
In addition to suspicion of theft, the two detained women were charged with providing false personal information. The investigation continues.
Earlier, Stopkor reported that in Poland a 35-year-old Ukrainian citizen, pursued by German authorities for suspected theft of a 171 electric bike, was detained. According to the investigation, in 2024 year he, using forged documents, presented himself as an employee of a transport company and took possession of a batch of goods worth over 500 thousand zlotys. In Germany, this crime could carry up to 10 years in prison.
