Five High-Value Bikes Seized in Gilching During Late-Night Stop

Investigators are asking recent theft victims to contact Gauting police, with two suspected accomplices still at large.

Overview

  • Officers stopped a cyclist around 22:30 on Karolingerstraße riding without lights and pushing a second bike, prompting a brief chase and arrest.
  • The detained 23-year-old Romanian, who has no fixed address in Germany, resisted and was later released on a €100 security after naming a delivery representative on a prosecutor’s order.
  • Police recovered four mountain bikes and a Raymon e-bike valued at about €8,000, including several Cube models.
  • Two bikes have been matched to a 19-year-old from Germering and a 34-year-old from Gilching, while three remain unassigned in police custody.
  • Two men who approached the scene fled on foot, leaving bicycles behind, and searches with additional patrols from Germering and Herrsching did not locate them.
