For reasons of infection protection, the PP Freiburg will not hold a press conference in the traditional sense, contrary to the practice you are familiar with from previous years. Since the topic of burglary has rightly taken on a high priority not only among the police, but also among the population and the media, we would like to send you important messages from your police in a new format. In addition to the classic press release, you will find video messages from the areas of protection police, criminal police and prevention in the attachment. Three areas that play an important role in the fight against home burglary. You are welcome to use these video messages if you quote the source: Police Headquarters Freiburg.

In the video messages, the head of the Freiburg Police Department, Chief Police Director Uwe Oldenburg, the Head of Criminal Inspection 2, Detlef Erny and Chief Detective Frank Erny from the Prevention unit would like to inform about the current development and the police measures to combat burglary.

On the coming Sunday, October 25th, 2020, on the one hand the winter time and on the other hand the proverbial “dark season” begins. Experience has shown that break-ins in houses and apartments, shops and companies are increasing. Above all, cross-border groups of perpetrators in the area of ​​responsibility of the Freiburg Police Headquarters cause increased burglary rates in the autumn and winter months. In the first three calendar weeks of October, the Freiburg Police Headquarters recorded fewer than 10 break-ins per week in the districts of Waldshut, Lörrach, Emmendingen, Breisgau-Hochschwarzwald and the urban district of Freiburg. However, an increase in the numbers cannot be ruled out.

We’ll come, we’ll sort it out and we’ll help you

Home burglary – The Freiburg Police Headquarters has been dealing with this phenomenon for many years and has achieved a lot together with the population. The police crime statistics also confirm this in their figures for the 2019 calendar year. In 2019, 931 burglaries were registered across the Presidium, which corresponds to a decrease of 398 burglaries. Uwe Oldenburg attributes this to two main components. On the one hand, raising awareness among the population. “This includes dialing the police emergency number, 110, if you see anything suspicious. We will come, we will clarify it and we will help you,” said the head of the police station, Uwe Oldenburg. On the other hand, the protection of residential property by upgrading technical devices that make breaking in or entering as unattractive as possible for burglars and ideally they do without it or remain with a failed attempt.

International cooperation, the bundling of investigations and high investigative pressure on the burglar groups led to success and should be maintained

Getting hold of the perpetrators poses major challenges for investigators every day. “In the past year, the PP Freiburg made great efforts to noticeably reduce the number of burglaries in the home. In addition to strengthening the visible police presence, the investigation pressure on the burglar groups active in the border triangle was increased practiced internationally in cooperation with the French police authorities and Switzerland. The result of the bundling of investigations by the criminal police and international cooperation are strong declines in the area of ​​WED. This trend can also be maintained in 2020, as the pressure to investigate was consistently maintained ” According to Detlef Erny, Head of Criminal Inspection 2. The investigations are successful when the police receive information from the population and the citizens report suspicious perceptions and people to the police without delay. “Good information is very often the basis for successful investigations,” continues Erny.

If you suspect people / vehicles are detected, immediately dial 110 police emergency number

Ideally, preventive measures can prevent criminal offenses in advance. Citizens can, for example, obtain information about burglary protection free of charge from the criminal police advice center and arrange an on-site appointment within their own four walls (see below for more information). In addition to this offer, Frank Erny explains that mechanical security of windows and doors, a good neighborly relationship, lighting with animal immune functions, for example, can represent important precautions to prevent break-ins.

Finally, there is a consultation on possible financial support from the state. The consultation lasts an hour on average and is very gratefully accepted by the citizens.

Many break-ins can be prevented by simple rules of conduct. The most important tips from your police:

   -	Verschließen Sie Fenster, Balkon- und Terrassentüren auch bei 
kurzer Abwesenheit. -	Vorsicht: Gekippte Fenster sind offene Fenster 
und von Einbrechern leicht zu öffnen. -	Wenn Sie Ihren Schlüssel 
verloren haben, wechseln Sie umgehend den Schließzylinder aus. -	 
Ziehen Sie die Tür nicht nur ins Schloss, sondern schließen Sie immer
zweifach ab - auch wenn Sie Haus oder Wohnung nur kurzzeitig 
verlassen. -	Deponieren Sie Ihren Haus- der Wohnungsschlüssel niemals
draußen. Einbrecher kennen jedes Versteck! -	Rollläden sollten zur 
Nachtzeit - und nach Möglichkeit nicht tagsüber - geschlossen werden.
Sie wollen ja nicht schon auf den ersten Blick Ihre Abwesenheit 
signalisieren. -	Lassen Sie bei einer Tür mit Glaseinsatz den 
Schlüssel nicht innen stecken. -	 Öffnen Sie auf Klingeln nicht 
bedenkenlos, sondern zeigen Sie gegenüber Fremden ein gesundes 
Misstrauen. Nutzen Sie Türspion und Sperrbügel (Türspaltsperre). 

Burglary protection through neighborhood help

   -	Pflegen Sie den Kontakt zu Ihren Nachbarn - für mehr 
Lebensqualität und Sicherheit. Denn in einer aufmerksamen 
Nachbarschaft haben Einbrecher kaum eine Chance. -	Achten Sie bewusst
auf gefährdende und verdächtige Situationen. -	Halten Sie in 
Mehrfamilienhäusern den Hauseingang auch tagsüber geschlossen. Prüfen
Sie, wer ins Haus will, bevor Sie den Türöffner drücken. -	 Achten 
Sie auf Fremde im Haus oder auf dem Nachbargrundstück und sprechen 
Sie sie an. -	Sorgen Sie dafür, dass in Mehrfamilienhäusern Keller- 
und Bodentüren stets verschlossen sind. -	Betreuen Sie die Wohnung 
länger abwesender Nachbarn, indem Sie z.B. den Briefkasten leeren. Es
geht darum, einen bewohnten Eindruck zu erwecken. -	Alarmieren Sie 
bei Gefahr (Hilferufe, ausgelöste Alarmanlage) und in dringenden 
Verdachtsfällen sofort die Polizei über Notruf 110.
