Crime - Laptop tracking convicts thieves: Two 26-year-olds in custody
The location of a stolen laptop has led to the conviction of two suspected thieves in Schweinfurt and brought them into custody. As the police and public prosecutor's office announced on Tuesday, the young men allegedly stole the suitcase of an 18-year-old on an ICE train near Würzburg on Sunday. When the 18-year-old could no longer find his suitcase, he located the laptop inside and alerted the police. A patrol then discovered the suitcase in Schweinfurt and arrested two 26-year-old suspects. The suspected thieves were remanded in custody on Monday.
