Thief is on the run

Expensive perfumes stolen with a rigged bag

The police are again investigating a theft from a store. Shoplifters are creative and therefore it is impossible to prevent these crimes.

Criminal energy and creativity are the hallmarks of "successful" thieves who have not yet been caught. A thief who stole valuable perfumes from a store in Klagenfurt is currently on the run.

A previously unknown perpetrator stole several high-priced perfumes from a store in Klagenfurt. The thief used a prepared shopping bag to shield the electronic security of the items. 
The loss amounts to more than 2000 euros.

It is difficult, if not impossible, to put an end to organized shoplifting . Professional thieves pretend to be decorators, warehouse workers or suppliers, for example. 

Second theft, same modus operandi
On Saturday evening, a previously unknown person stole several high-priced perfumes from a store in St. Veit - also using a prepared shopping bag. He then walked past the checkout, where he was approached by the cashier because of his suspicious behavior and the suspect fled. A manhunt was unsuccessful.
Whether there is a connection with the theft in Klagenfurt is still under investigation.
