Czech police arrest duo behind 25 thefts across four regions

Police in the Hradec Králové Region have apprehended two men, aged 31 and 34, following a series of 25 thefts across four Czech regions. The suspects operated between June 2024 and the present, targeting schools, educational facilities, and businesses.

The duo allegedly stole cash, electronics, safes, and cash registers, resulting in total damages of approximately one million koruna. To evade detection, the suspects used spray paint to obscure security cameras and sensors.

Criminal investigators from the department of forensic technology and expertise assisted in solving the case by analyzing traces left at the crime scenes. The older man was detained in the Central Bohemian Region and sent to custody, while the younger man was already imprisoned for a separate crime.
