Darmstadt (ots) – An unruly shoplifter stole clothing from a shop on Ernst-Ludwig-Straße on Monday (July 12th) around 5 p.m. The attentive shop detective caught him and spoke to him as he proceeded. Then the stranger suddenly reached out and hit the employee in the face with his fist before he fled on foot. The clerk pursued him, but lost sight of him at the level of the Art Nouveau bathroom. The thief has been described as about six to eight feet tall and of sturdy stature. At the time of the crime, he was wearing black pants and a white t-shirt. He had black hair and was carrying a black “Puma” bum bag with him. Large tattoos were seen on his right arm as well as in the shoulder and neck area.
Commissariat 43 from the Darmstadt police is investigating suspected robbery. Witnesses who can provide information on the identity of the perpetrator are asked to contact the officers (phone number 06151 / 969-3610).
