On the night of Sunday, an unknown perpetrator in St. Ruprecht an der Raab took the term self-service shop too literally: The man broke open a cash register and when he didn’t find anything there, he used the change basket. A neighbor noticed the thief from his balcony and yelled at him to flee. Now the police are looking for the perpetrator.

About half an hour after midnight, an unknown person broke into a cash register with a tool in one of these shops in the Rollsdorf district.
