“경찰입니다”…수상한? 오피스텔 침입해 강도짓 벌인 일당

A group of six individuals were recently apprehended by police after carrying out a seemingly odd office apartment burglary in which they violently assaulted a 20-year-old man and stole over 3230 million won worth of property. The case came to light after the victims reported the incident to the police, despite arriving at the scene to discover the apartment empty.

On the night of October 10th, the suspects, aged between 20 and 30, allegedly broke into an apartment located in Jung-gu, Daejeon, posing as police officers. They entered the office area and brutally assaulted the 20-year-old victim, before kidnapping two other occupants who were present. The suspects then threatened the victims into remaining silent and stole both cash and a computer as they fled the scene.

Despite the violent nature of the attack, the two surviving victims did not report the crime to the police immediately. It was only after several days that the police learned of the incident and found the apartment empty. CCTV footage outside the building captured the suspects carrying away the stolen computer, casting doubt on the original assumption that the office apartment was a site for an online gambling operation.

Police have managed to seize various items, including knives and stolen money, from the suspects' vehicles and homes, which they believe are directly linked to the crime. They are currently analyzing CCTV footage and other evidence to piece together the details of the incident and hold the suspects accountable.
