Robbery in Ludwigsvorstadt: 21-year-old arrested with pepper spray!
On June 29, 2025, a robbery occurred in Ludwigsvorstadt that caused quite a stir. A 21-year-old man of Syrian nationality, without a fixed address, was arrested after he threatened a 19-year-old from the Fürstenfeldbruck district with pepper spray. The 21-year-old demanded his victim's cell phone and wallet and was then able to escape. Bavaria Police reports that the police intervened quickly and eventually arrested him. A complaint of aggravated robbery and coercion was filed against the alleged perpetrator, and an arrest warrant was issued. The investigation is in the hands of Commissariat 21.
The use of pepper spray in this incident raises some legal questions. According to a ruling by the Federal Court of Justice on September 20, 2017, pepper spray is considered a “dangerous tool” in the sense of theft with weapons. Such tools can cause serious bodily harm. In the case of the 21-year-old, the situation is clear: he threatened his victim with pepper spray, which confirms the seriousness of the crime. [Lawyer Criminal Law](https://rechtsanwalt-ruee-verkaufe.anwalt-strafrecht.berlin/ein-pfefferspray-stellen-ein-gefaehrliches-werkzeug-im-sinne-eines-diebstahls-mit- Waffen-dar/) explains that the objective nature of an object is decisive for whether it can be classified as a dangerous tool.

Con artists on the move in the city
A particularly bold case occurred on July 1, 2025 in Lehel and Hasenbergl. Fake police officers set out to rob people over 80 of their money and valuables. The perpetrators posed as officers and stole cash and jewelry. The police strongly warned citizens to be careful and, if in doubt, to always ask for an ID card.
In addition, three young men, aged 17 to 23, were suspected of damaging property on the night of July 2, 2025. They stepped on a parked bicycle and were able to be found by the police near the crime scene. Here too, the investigation is being carried out by Criminal Investigation Department 2.
So Munich remains on its toes, and events make it clear: There are always challenges in the city, be it robberies, accidents or attempted fraud. Be alert and walk the streets carefully!
