Two more raids
The act is said to be part of a series of three raids in Moabit on December 7th, 10th and 15th, 2019.
In the other two acts, the two robbers raided hotels at night. Among other things, they are said to have robbed the lobby of the Hotel Ameron Berlin Abion Spreebogen in Moabit on December 15, 2019, around 3:30 a.m. They threatened two hotel employees at the reception with one weapon and stole cash from a safe.
The two perpetrators then fled through the Kleiner Tiergarten in the direction of Lübecker Strasse.
The criminal police asks:
► Who knows the people depicted, can provide information on the identity or whereabouts or place of residence of the strangers?
