A Serbian (33) and a Croatian (49) spent days on the road in Germany and Austria stealing laptops, mobile phones and other expensive equipment from expensive cars - and their owners thought they were effectively locked up. But with a signal jammers, you can interrupt the radio signal from your keys to your car. In the Irschenberg rest area, a Fischbachauer also fell victim to the pair. But a day later, they made a big mistake in Austria. Austrian police report:
"On August 31, at around 11 am, two initially unknown perpetrators stole a wallet and a mobile phone from an unlocked car in the car park of the A1 motorway, in the district of Loosdorf (Melk district), heading towards Vienna, and then fled by car towards Vienna. In a closed parking lot in the city of Markersdorf (St. Polten-Land district), they threw their wallets and mobile phones out of the car.
A passing witness saw the situation and immediately reported it to the police. As a result of the immediate search, the car, which was occupied by a 33-year-old Serbian citizen and a 49-year-old Croatian, could have been stopped by officers at the police checkpoint on the A21 in the city of Aran.
Upon inspection of the vehicle, high quality laptops, tablets, mobile phones and camera devices were found and fixed. It can also fix anti-theft tools and jammers hidden in the vehicle. Jammers are used to interrupt the signal between the radio remote control and the vehicle.
In addition to the theft on the A1, the two suspects were commissioned to carry out 11 other thefts in Germany (Berlin, the Autobahn between Berlin and Switzerland, the autobahn rest area in the Munich area, the Irschenberg Autobahn rest area) and Switzerland (Basel). The two accused did not appear in court, but were taken to prison on the order of the prosecutor in St. Pelten.
