Arrest in connection with trucks found by police full of stolen goods

An Albanian national was arrested on Wednesday and two more people were wanted in connection with the case of two private trucks with Albanian licence plates filled with stolen goods that were found Sunday by police in the Athens suburb of Moschato in an outdoor parking lot. 

 

Police, acting on a tip-off, seized the trucks and confiscated the stolen goods, which included three electricity generators, a roadworks machine, four motorcycles that had been stolen from the residential areas of Vyronas and Kaissariani, a jet ski that had been stolen from Kalyvia, in Attica prefecture, an outboard motor that had been stolen from Paiania, and several other public works machines. 

 

According to police, the thefts were the work of a gang 'specialising' in stealing vehicles, generators and motorcycles, which it would then smuggle out of Greece.
