On Wednesday evening, a resident of Stolberg-Breinig noticed his stolen camper driving past while walking his dog. Returning home, he found that the trailer, already packed for a holiday, had been stolen from a property on Breiniger Berg. He immediately passed the GPS tracker data to Aachen police.
The perpetrators crossed the border into Belgium, but Belgian police stopped and confiscated the camper on motorway E40. Two suspects, aged 19 and 26, were arrested. Authorities of both countries are cooperating in the investigation.
