In an incident that took place on Schadowstraße, Düsseldorf on Sunday, July 7, 2024, at 00:42 AM, a 58-year-old resident was approached by two men. The suspects, aged 35 and 40, are of Algerian nationality and are believed to be involved in a series of watch thefts.

The men engaged the resident in a conversation, and during this interaction, one of the suspects performed a "fist bump" with the victim. However, the victim noticed that his high-end Hublot watch was missing from his left wrist after the men left. The stolen watch was later found along their escape route, under a tree.

The suspects were apprehended near the scene of the crime and will be presented before a judge today. The 35-year-old suspect has a history of theft offenses related to watches, and the 35-year-old is known to the police for previous theft offenses.

The investigation, led by the local Kriminalkommissariat 13, is ongoing, focusing on watch thefts with a similar modus operandi. The suspects are suspected of involvement in other recent watch thefts, but there is no specific information provided in the search results about a police station leading investigations into the connection of Algerian men with these thefts.

The investigation has revealed that the suspects are suspected of being involved in the watch theft on Schadowstraße, Düsseldorf on July 7, 2024. The police are working diligently to uncover any further connections and bring those responsible to justice. Stay tuned for updates on this developing story.
