Robbery in a restaurant on Kudamm in Berlin-Charlottenburg. The victim’s watch was simply ripped from his wrist. A Patek Philippe worth 120,000 euros.
According to the police, the robbery victim was sitting on the terrace of the in-Italian “Petrocelli” around 5 p.m. last Thursday. Suddenly a man approached him from behind and ripped the valuable watch off his wrist!
The robber ran with the loot across the sidewalk to a roadside scooter. Another man was waiting there. The duo fled down the Kudamm in the direction of Halensee on a scooter.
Plainclothes police officers became aware of the incident and pursued the robbers, who were joined by a third man. The robber trio (26, 34, 44) was arrested and taken into police custody.
Too late for the robbery! The 50-year-old suffered only minor injuries in the robbery, including scratches on his wrist. But his luxury watch has disappeared until now!
