Theft of a Federal Cross of Merit - TV Show to Help - Masked Robbers Target Elderly Woman in Holzminden Home Invasion
An elderly woman in Holzminden was the victim of a violent home robbery last September. Two masked intruders broke into her house and stole valuables worth a five-figure sum. The woman escaped the ordeal unharmed, but the suspects remain at large.
The robbery took place on September 25, 2025, when two men dressed in black forced their way into the woman's home. They took a Federal Cross of Merit, jewellery, and gold coins before fleeing. Despite an ongoing investigation, police have yet to identify the culprits.
To gather fresh leads, Holzminden police will present the case on ZDF's *Aktenzeichen XY… ungelöst* on Wednesday, March 18, 2026. Officers Julia Bauer and Thomas Grimme will share details of the crime and key evidence at 8:15 PM. Authorities hope the broadcast will prompt witnesses to come forward.
The stolen items include a prestigious award, personal jewellery, and gold coins. Police continue to search for the two masked suspects. Anyone with information is urged to contact the investigation team.
