On December 24, shortly after 10 PM, there was an attempted break-in at Barcelona winner Vincent Schroeder's home.
Footage from the security cameras shows how two individuals closely monitor the lofts and then attempt to take action. However, they were betrayed by the alarm system and fled.
After his victory from Barcelona, extra measures were taken to secure the lofts in Schalkhoven, so unfortunately, it didn't take long before these were put to the test.
The KBDB had previously urged extra vigilance following earlier thefts involving, among others, Paul Haesaert, Tom and Marnik Van Gaver, and Jos and Jan Loobuyck.
