Three young men suspected of robbery were detained from the Bielany district of Warsaw. According to the officers, the teenagers stole the victim’s shoes, which they were supposed to buy. Additionally, one of them will also be charged with drugs.
The incident took place a few days ago at Opalin Street. The injured party agreed with the buyer to sell several pairs of branded shoes. In addition to the seller, the buyer accompanied by two friends came to the meeting place. After seeing the goods, an 18-year-old and a 19-year-old beat up the seller and took his shoes. He reported the theft to the police and estimated the losses at over PLN 5,700.
