While a local woman prepared a snack for the boy, the supposedly desperate mother sneaked into another room and stole a gold ring.
The police report a brutal trick theft: an unknown woman and a child entered the apartment of an elderly couple in Flachgau through a patio door on Sunday morning. She asked for money, food and to go to the toilet. The couple was helpful and friendly: she gave the mother ten euros and let her go to the toilet, while also preparing a snack for the boy. When the unknown woman came down from the first floor, she took her child with her and abruptly left the house. When the woman from Flachgau looked, she noticed that a gold ring was missing. A report has been filed and the alleged impostor is on the run.
The police provide tips in such cases
Police are using the current case as an opportunity to warn about trick thefts:
- Never let strangers into the house. Always have a lock chain when you open the door for strangers.
- A firm no, sending the visitor away or calling for help can prevent crimes.
- Remember the appearance for a personal description.
- In an emergency, call 911 and do not allow anyone into the house.
