On Tuesday, May 21, at night, two 17-year-olds escaped from one of the Youth Educational Centers in the Lipsk district.
– They reached a nearby inn, where they stole a Trabant parked nearby, which was an attraction for restaurant guests. They went to Leipzig in a stolen car, where they broke into a kiosk from which they stole tobacco products and e-cigarettes. Loaded with loot, they set off in a Trabant towards Opole Lubelskie. Unfortunately, their car broke down on the route, so they decided to remove the battery and continued their journey on foot – says the Asp. Monika Karasińska from the police in Leipzig.
