In Lübeck, a camper was stolen on August 7, 2026, from a parking lot on Willy-Brandt-Allee. The owner noticed the theft around 11 p.m. and, thanks to a GPS tracking system, was able to locate the vehicle. Police arrested the suspect on Isaac-Newton-Straße.

The 49-year-old man was found inside the camper and showed signs of drug and alcohol use; a blood test was ordered. The next day, a court issued an arrest warrant on suspicion of particularly serious theft but released the suspect from custody.
