A series of school break-ins is keeping investigators in Upper Austria busy. The latest victim is the Riedau secondary school, where the perpetrators emptied class registers. Is it still necessary to collect cash from pupils?

The perpetrators stroll into schools at night, break down doors and steal a few hundred euros from the class registers - as happened at the Riedau secondary school at the weekend. As reported by the "Krone" newspaper, Upper Austria is currently being hit by a series of break-ins at schools and kindergartens.
