Overview
- A father returned from a brief stop at a shopping center in northern Hamburg to find his e‑bike, trailer, and 4‑year‑old daughter missing.
- Police launched a large search that included multiple patrol cars, motorcycle units, and the “Libelle” helicopter.
- The father used a hidden GPS tracker on the e‑bike to pinpoint the bike near a hardware store about 1.5 kilometers from the mall.
