(dr) On Monday evening, December 12, 2022, a 38-year-old tourist ran into a pickpocket who stole his wallet with the so-called “dancer’s trick”.
At around 17:10, the injured person left Frankfurt Central Station via the southern exit, dragging two suitcases alongside. Apparently he had taken the wrong exit, so he walked towards the station square. Shortly after the exit, a stranger spoke to him gently, danced lightly, and hooked his feet between the victim’s. The 38-year-old noticed that something was wrong and then saw that the stranger was suddenly holding his wallet. This was previously in the victim’s pocket. After a short conversation with the thief, the victim recovered his wallet. However, when he checked the contents, he discovered that his cash was missing, about 270 euros. The pickpocket meanwhile had escaped.
