Caught on camera
Burglar duo caught: mother comes forward!
A young burglar duo caused tens of thousands of euros in damage to a company in Carinthia - the "fun" didn't last long. Photos of the burglary went viral on social media, and according to the alleged mother, the accused girl is now being "hounded" on the internet.
A crippled power supply, a damaged forklift, scattered paint powder and walls and doors sprayed with graffiti, as well as a stolen computer and a smashed window: a violent outcome after a break-in at a company in Ebenthal.
On Wednesday, the police released pictures of the break-in in March. They show a girl and a boy - both in their teens - who had been in the building for several hours and must have had a good time. "After consulting with the public prosecutor's office in Klagenfurt, they ordered the publication of the photos for the purpose of a manhunt," the police said.
After being published by the police, the pictures of the teenagers also found their way onto social media - where the two were quickly recognized and reported to the police. They are two 14-year-olds from the district of Klagenfurt-Land.
Mother of the perpetrator: "It doesn't have to be so rushed"
Suddenly, the alleged mother of the girl spoke up on the internet: "I recognized my daughter from the photos myself today and we filed a self-accusation," the mother said, asking for the published photos to be removed.
There doesn't have to be so much hounding on the internet against such a young girl!
Die angebliche Mutter des Mädchens
"She was still 13 at the time. It shouldn't have happened," she writes in a message to an Instagram page that had also published the pictures. She speaks of "extreme crap that she did for the first time in her life!" Nevertheless, the woman voices criticism: "She's still young and people are now ranting everywhere in the comments!"
What she would have to face is punishment enough: "There doesn't have to be so much hounding on the internet against such a young girl!" says the message, which is said to have come from the mother of the perpetrator.
The stolen goods were seized by the police during a voluntary inspection: "The young people will be released after the investigations have been completed," the police said in a statement.
