Police officer fired - he is said to have stolen 180 kilos of cheese. Police officer allegedly stole nine packages of cheese after truck accident.

He also lied to his superiors and claimed that the cheese was lying on the street and had been released. Officials can be removed from duty if they seriously violate their official duties. The Frankenthal regional court had already found the police officer guilty of less serious theft with weapons in 2022 and warned him. The court considered it proven that the civil servant had “long-term and significantly separated himself from the existing relationship of trust and loyalty”
