The duo was in possession of an angle grinder and other tools with which they attempted to break open locked bicycles. The 18-year-old witness immediately called 112, and as a result, we were able to prevent the two men from escaping with several bicycles. They were detained for a few days and will have to answer to the court at a later date. Do you see anything suspicious? Let us know. In case of an emergency requiring immediate intervention, call 112; for less urgent matters, you can always call 0900-8844.

Witness Prevents Bicycle Theft
Gebied: Woerden
Thanks to a vigilant witness, we were able to catch two bicycle thieves in the act last week. The two men, aged 26 and 33, attempted to steal several bicycles on Friday afternoon, October 31 at 3:45 PM near the Woerden train station at Stationsplein Zuid.
Are you happy with Openrijk?
Great! Unfortunately, it is not free to keep Openrijk running. A cup of coffee would therefore be much appreciated. Thank you!
Best, David
