In the period from February 15 to March 29, 2023, there were repeated thefts from unlocked and locked lockers in the men’s changing room in a fitness studio in Steyr and in the Linz-Land district. The same procedure was observed again and again. The perpetrator stole wallets and their contents (cash, documents and non-cash means of payment) from the lockers. The perpetrator then used the ATM cards to make payments at ATMs. In the course of the investigation, a suspect, a 19-year-old from the Linz-Land district, was identified. On April 8, 2023, the suspect’s residential address was visited by police officers. He could not be found, but was contacted by telephone. The suspect came voluntarily to the Steyr-Münichholz police station and was informed that he was suspected of having committed a crime. The 19-year-old made a full confession during his interrogation. He will be reported to the public prosecutor’s office, according to the police.
