Mystery Stone-Thrower on Highway 19: cops search for witnesses
Hey there, pals! Apparently, some unknown chap has been chucking stones onto the tarmac of highway 19 near Petersdorfer See (Mecklenburg Lake District). The cops are on the hunt for any eyewitnesses now. A police dame said on Friday that there were a total of three events happening between July and the start of November. Nary a soul was harmed, but those motorists involved took a beating.
Swinging back to the investigation, it's thought that the suspect in all three cases took up position on a trail running parallel to the highway up north of the Petersdorf Bridge. The fella is folklore to be somewhere in the 40-60 age range, have a wisp of grey whiskers, and was suiting up in a scarlet and black jumper. The criminal investigation squad in Röbel is digging into dangerous obstruction of traffic and is begging for your two cents if you spotted the dude, or maybe caught some other stunts.
Now, if chucking stones on a highway sounds like your kind of crime, kindly keep it to yourself and keep your eyes peeled for any furry-faced, scarlet-wearing men causing an uproar.
Blasts from the Past:
If you happened to witness these stone-tossing escapades near Peterson See, it's vital to spill the beans to the authorities sharpish. Here's a handful of pointers to get you started:
- Hitch up with your local po-po: Get in touch with your nearby police department or highway patrol and supply them with the lowdown, such as the time, location, and any clues about the suspect.
- Ring the emergency bell: Should you suspect the situation is winding up to some hot-blooded craziness or puts others in harm's way, dial your local emergency number equivalent to 112, to go full blown SOS mode.
- Share the description: Toss a bone to the po-po by sharing the dapper guy's description; a hunk in his 40s to 60s with chops of grey fluff, donning a scarlet and black getup.
- Hang onto the proof: If you snagged any snaps or videos of the shenanigans, no need to discard it - save it for the investigators to enjoy.
- Keep your peepers peeled and yesteryears' safety in mind: If you suspect the area's not safe for you, give it a wide berth until further notice.
