Hesse: 33-year-old after a filmed robbery in custody

Frankfurt/Main (dpa/lhe) - After a robbery filmed with a mobile phone in the Frankfurt train station district, the police arrested one of the suspected robbers. According to the police, the 33-year-old was taken into custody on Thursday. Almost three weeks ago, he is said to have struck a 35-year-old man and stolen his valuables.

The act caused a stir because it was filmed and posted on the Internet. The 35-year-old - who, according to the police, has hardly any memories of his nightly tour of the station district - recognized himself on the film and then reported to the authorities.

The background to the attack and the identity of the second attacker who can be seen on the video are still unclear. The suspect was arrested on Monday.
