What to do when faced with a robbery

  • Call the police immediately, giving them the exact address of the establishment and a contact number.
  • Ask for medical assistance, if necessary calling 061 or 112.
  • Do not touch anything that may serve to obtain fingerprints or other clues about the perpetrators.
  • Do not let anyone enter the site of the robbery (room, shop).
  • Keep the telephone line free until the police arrive.
  • Try to stay calm and be cautious in dangerous or threatening situations. Do not attempt heroics. Remember that the most important thing is people’s safety.
  • Observe the physical appearance of the thieves and other details so that you can help the police to identify them later: clothes, escape route, vehicle registration number, etc.
