After the attack on a gas station in Bamberg, the police were able to arrest three suspects. The youngest of them is 14 years old.
Bamberg – Masked and armed with a crossbow, unknown persons attacked a gas station on Kunigundendamm in Bamberg last Saturday. The perpetrators were able to capture a four-digit sum of money and then flee. Drone and patrol cars were used to search for the robbers.
Six days later, the police were able to arrest three suspects. A 20-year-old, a 15-year-old and a 14-year-old. The 20-year-old is in custody, came to a correctional facility, as the police headquarters of Upper Franconia announced on Friday.

After robbery at gas station: suspects arrested – 14- and 15-year-olds released again
The 14-year-old and the 15-year-old have since been released. Previously, forces had searched the apartments of the young men. "In doing so, they were able to seize incriminating evidence," the police said in a statement.
Even after the attack on a gas station in Bamberg last year, where an armed perpetrator was able to flee with the loot, the police searched for him with a large contingent including helicopters and sniffer dogs.
