A quintet is said to be responsible for at least 24 sneak thefts in four federal states. The handcuffs have now clicked for the three women and two men.

Five suspects from Romania were caught red-handed and arrested last week during a sneak theft in the Mürzzuschlag district in Styria by officers from the Upper Austria State Criminal Police Office and other police officers from the Linz-Land district. The three women and two men were proven to have committed 24 sneak thefts in Upper Austria, Lower Austria, Burgenland, and Styria, the police reported.

Thieves made off with gold jewelry and cash

The five suspects mainly stole gold jewelry and cash. They did not confess during their interrogations. Two women were transferred to the Linz prison, while the other three individuals were reported at large. The quintet has been under investigation since March, and further crime scenes are still being investigated. The preliminary damage amount is in the five-digit range.
