High-speed robberies seem to be the new trend for German thieves. Since November 2012 up to 50 cases of moving truck heists have been reported, according to De Spiegel.
The technique is usually the same. After locating the truck to rob, thieves surround it with their cars.
The car in front of the truck controls the speed, while the one on the side of the truck prevents the truck from changing lanes. The car at the back completes the heist.
After climbing on the car's hood from the sunroof, one or more thieves open the back door of the truck and steal its cargo.
Police estimate that so far around €250,000 worth of goods have been stolen using this method -- mostly mobile phones, laptops and other electronics.
