The rapidly increasing number of residential burglaries is causing police departments nationwide considerable concern. However, not only private individuals are affected – companies, too, fall victim to such offences:
In recent years, the number of residential burglaries in Stuttgart has reached record levels, and company buildings and office premises have also increasingly become targets. Many amateur offenders seem unaware that there are usually no significant material valuables or easily transportable goods stored in offices. As a result, burglaries in commercial premises often cause greater property damage than the actual value of stolen goods.
Other, typically professional, burglars are not after the material assets kept in company buildings but rather after ideas: construction plans, business concepts – intellectual property. In such cases, we are talking about industrial espionage. The Kurtz Detective Agency Stuttgart refers readers to its dedicated page on this subject.
The citizens of Stuttgart have already proven in the past that they can make something shine again once lost, rebuilding their city after the Second World War, which had destroyed 68 per cent of residential buildings and 75 per cent of industrial facilities. However, when possible, everyone prefers to avoid damage to their property. Business premises that lie idle at night or over the weekend serve as an invitation for some vandals – and even for competitors or envious individuals – to damage company property: façades, vehicles, machinery, windows, doors, and more.
Identifying the perpetrator of a one-time act of vandalism is rarely possible if no preventive measures, such as video surveillance, have been implemented beforehand. However, in the case of repeated attacks, surveillance of the affected premises is advisable to catch the perpetrators in the act, document the offences in a way admissible in court, and hand the culprits over to the police.
