There could be sad faces on Christmas Eve in a family in the Bavarian community of Bodenwöhr. On Friday morning, the mother had placed the already wrapped Christmas presents for the two children and the husband in the corridor in front of her attic apartment in the apartment building and was busy with the final preparations for the festival. A stranger brazenly stole the gifts intended for the family.
He only left a few unwieldy packages, a police spokesman reported on Christmas Eve. There was no trace of the thief on Christmas Day either.
“It hurts the family a lot, where do you get presents from now?” Said the police spokesman. The theft also hit the family financially. “It is unusual for us in the country that something like this happens,” said the spokesman, who was also personally touched by the case. (dpa)
