Christmas is coming, families are busy preparing for the holiday, but also be careful, the recent Melbourne thieves more and more rampant!
The morning before yesterday, a resident in Point Cook called the police, claiming that a young man armed with an axe broke into his home for robbery! Not only did he steal the keys and wallet, but after he was discovered by the owner, he cut him with an axe in his hand.
The police came immediately after hearing the news, signaled the young man to drop his axe in his hand and quickly surrender. As a result, he not only kept advising but also tried to escape, the police had to fire a warning gun, and finally he was able to subdue his uniform!
Similar robberies have happened more recently!
On Sunday, a group of thieves booked airbnb accommodation in a high-rise residential building in CBD, Melbourne, in order to see which house was good to start, and eventually chose two apartments on different floors to break into the door and carry out the theft.
Police say it is a new trend of crime in recent years to commit crimes through short-term rental of apartments and the implementation of theft. Not only is the burglary, when the phenomenon of street robberies also staged from time to time!
Last night, two criminals, a man and a woman, robbed a Melbourne taxi driver with a knife in the street! They lured him into a dead end, then robbed him, taking $200 in cash and a cell phone.
This driver is fresh too! After being robbed, the more thinking, the more angry, not only called the police, he drove to catch up with the robbers who fled on motorcycles, but also beat them off the motorcycle! Then, the police arrived at the scene in time to control the situation.
At the turn of the year, the thieves will be ready to go home for the holiday, and even less generous. In any case, we have to be more vigilant recently and pay attention to the safety of our people and property!
