On Friday at 11am, a man was assaulted near the Kuerbuttek in Pétange, getting his watch stolen in the process.

Two suspects between approximately 18 and 25 years old threatened their victim with a knife, as they stole their watch and fled in two different directions. One of them fled towards the roundabout Op der Millen / Wax, the other in direction of the Pétange gym.

According to the victim, a man walking his dog passed him by shortly after the assault, as well as two cyclists.

These witnesses – and anyone who may have information on the occurrence – are asked to contact the police at (+352) 244 56 1000 or via Police.BASCHARAGEPETANGE@police.etat.lu.
