Braunschweig Shopping Centre Incident: Suspect Arrested for Alleged Robbery

In an unexpected turn of events, a 56-year-old individual was taken into custody following an incident at the Schloss-Arkaden shopping centre in downtown Braunschweig on September 4, 2025, at 9:00 PM.

According to reports from the Braunschweig Police, published by news aktuell, the suspect was allegedly attempting to steal. The incident occurred late at night, with the individual attempting to flee after being caught. In the process of fleeing, a security staff member was slightly injured.

Upon arrival, the officers found the suspect held by the security staff. The suspect was reportedly verbally and physically non-cooperative, resulting in his restraint with handcuffs.

It is alleged that the suspect was rummaging through displays at an empty mobile phone accessory stand after the nearby stores closed. Given his previous multiple offenses involving property crimes, the suspect was taken into custody to prevent further crimes until the following morning.

The individual who was taken into custody is 56 years old. The suspect will have to answer for charges of robbery.
