"Secure your home, be alert, dial '110'!" These are the key recommendations for all citizens in the fight against home burglars.
The Bochum police want people in our district to feel safe in their own four walls. This includes keeping you informed about the ongoing development of burglary crime in Bochum, Herne and Witten.
We provide you with overview maps showing the residential burglaries (including attempts) of the past week in the individual districts. For reasons of data protection, we have refrained from mapping the exact locations of the burglary scenes, i.e. the streets and house numbers.
We hope that our citizens will become even more concerned with the issue of burglaries when they see that there has been a break-in in their "neighborhood". We are thinking, among other things, of improving door and window locks, "neighborhood watching" and dialing "110" if they notice anything suspicious.
Information on all matters relating to protection against burglary can be obtained from the Department for Prevention and Victim Protection on 0234 / 909-4040.
