The Stuivenberg neighborhood team noticed the man on Tuesday afternoon. “He had been arrested and investigated for similar offenses on several occasions. This time the man sold an expensive S-Pedelec worth 9,000 euros for 50 euros,” explains police spokesman Willem Migom. The bicycle thief was arrested on site. “His interested customer was also arrested for fencing,” Migom said. “The bike will be returned to its rightful owner.”
The same neighborhood team also checked on another man on Tuesday who they knew from previous incidents. The man had twenty prepared bags of hashish in his pocket as well as an uncut block of hashish and cocaine. “He had been released from prison a week earlier and was therefore only able to enjoy his freedom for a long weekend,” says Migom. It also turned out that both people were in our country illegally. (jtp)
