Harburg / Harburg district. “Overall, we drove far fewer missions than before the pandemic,” said a fire department spokesman. Nevertheless, there were many small fires on the night of the first day of the new year. Trash cans and rubbish burned in almost every part of the city. At Harburger Ring, young people tried to outsmart the police. Again and again officials had to disperse the crowds that were on the way to mark the turn of the year. Similarly, at the usual hotspots on Jungfernstieg and the Landungsbrücken, where up to 8,000 people stayed at the top.
A civil patrol observed three men in Buxtehuder Strasse who were handling alarm weapons and firing blank cartridges several times. The officer was able to arrest one man, and two others fled to Schwarzenbergpark.
A break-in in a bakery near Winsen is spectacular. There, at around 10 p.m., intruders tried to break into the chain’s headquarters on Scharmbeck’s Dorfstrasse. The perpetrators were able to get to the roof via the back of the building with the help of a ladder, but could not get any further from there. At least that is what the first traces suggest. Ultimately, a window on the first floor was broken open to enter. In the building, the perpetrators broke through a wall to get into an adjoining room. Presumably they were aiming for the daily income, currently it is not known whether the loot was made. The perpetrators, who were initially suspected to be still in the building, were already over the mountains.
When a smoke alarm was triggered, a family returning home was made aware of a fire in their apartment on Hauptstrasse in Neu-Wulmstorf shortly before half past ten. The furniture and Christmas tree in the apartment had caught fire. The Neu Wulmstorf and Rübke fire departments were able to successfully prevent the fire from spreading to other parts of the apartment.
