  • This is worrying – although bored teenage kids throwing small stones onto roads is (or was) a common problem in many areas (including just down the road from me in Essex, Eastern England) and the DR news reports many similar incidents, most kids across Europe struggle lifting anything over 10 kilos, other than those training to be bodybuilders/athletes.

    These kind of concrete blocks also cost a good few Euros each and thus are not casually left lying around (otherwise folk will nick them).

    I have hauled a few of them myself about 11 years ago when I was helping a friend build his recording studio in SE England (they are as you would expect good for soundproofing) – when doing a job like this no matter how fit and strong you might think you are (they are the limit of what a normal person can lift single handed) after a few minutes of that you really do not want to haul them one more cm further than they have to go.

    As the detective says himself it would likely have taken at least two grown adults and a motor vehicle to transport these items.

    Unfortunately a German vehicle always stands out as the license plates contain distinctive designs on them which relate to the Länder it was registered in; and all this Brexit stuff has stirred the pot in other countries than the UK…

    At least the strong building regulations and quality control of Europe mean that the detectives even know what company made the blocks and roughly where they might have come from, hopefully they can catch this dangerous criminal.
