Overview
- Investigators asked witnesses who saw an orange Ford Ranger on 10 October to report specific sightings tied to Schweriner Straße in Güstrow, several villages between Bülow and Lohmen, and the Klein Upahl area across defined time windows.
- Passengers on Regionalbus 203 that departed Güstrow/Parumer Weg at 10:45 and drivers with dashcams or exterior cameras who were in those areas were urged to share footage or observations with the Rostock criminal police.
- Authorities published photos of the seized Ford Ranger linked to the suspect and confirmed the vehicle was taken during 6 November searches for forensic examination.
- The Rostock prosecutor said the current results justify the suspicion of murder and that investigators know which weapon was used, while stressing the ongoing collection of indicia.
- The suspect remains in pretrial detention as the victim’s mother and her lawyer voice frustration over repeated questioning and the pace of progress, with the presumption of innocence emphasized by officials.
