Dachau. Because he was caught stealing at Tengelmann in Dachau, a man threw the business manager of a branch out of a store window.

Director of Tengelmann, Jürgen Sallaj, asked the thief into his office to take his personal data when the criminal grabbed Sallaj and threw him backwards through the store window. "He flew through the window at once and landed pretty far outside", says the tenant of the bakery in the branch. Afterwards the thief sat motionless in front of the window. Police arrested him. The manager was brought to a hospital in Dachau. He suffers from head injuries. His assistant, Tugba Geldi, had a short conversation with the director and commented "he said he is feeling good."
