Undeterred, he looked around the garden. The owner could not detect any intruders, but on his way back to the house he was shocked to discover that all the turkeys had disappeared. Of his 40 feathered birds, ten two-week-old chicks and seven of the 2.5-month-old hatchlings were missing.

The live prey must have been brought along, packed in a bag. The hobby grower reacted with concern: “I have filed a complaint!” An adult turkey is worth 25 euros, by the way. It was only recently that a friend of the breeder also fell victim to thieves. Ordinary criminals are said to have stolen a number of chickens from his yard in Mariasdorf.
