A house in Bettembourg was broken into on New Year’s Eve, as perpetrators smashed open a patio door to the home on Rue de la Libération to gain access and search through the rooms.
In addition, break-ins were reported on Rue de la Résistance in Strassen, and Rue John Gruen in Mondorf-les-Bains. In both instances, the residents were at home and caught the suspects in the act, causing the thieves to flee.
