The police has arrested two Eindhoven residents aged 23 and 24 years. The young men are suspected of dozens of car break-ins.
The number of car break-ins has drastically increased in from the start of June in Eindhoven and Veldhoven. Especially fast break-ins, so-called ‘snelkraken’ had increased, this is when a car window is pushed in and the loot, laptops and iPads are taken, in a very short space of time.
A special taskforce was put in place to further investigate these break-ins. And in their investigation, two particular persons, the two Eindhoven residents, came to the fore as possible suspects. They were arrested Thursday morning around 7 am at their residence. A 52 year old Eindhoven resident was also arrested. He is suspected to have sold the stolen goods from the car break-ins. A number of items, money and a car were confiscated. Investigation in the matter is continuing
