Zagreb police released details on Monday, August 10, about a robbery that took place the previous day in the Trnje area. Two as-yet-unknown younger perpetrators attacked a minor and stole his scooter, leaving the victim with serious injuries.
According to information from the Zagreb Police Department, the incident occurred on Sunday, August 9, 2026, at approximately 1:20 PM in Starotrnjanska Street. The two unidentified attackers approached the minor and physically assaulted him. After overpowering the victim, they stole his scooter and fled the scene.
In an official statement, police did not provide details about the duration of the attack, nor was it confirmed whether the scooter has been recovered. Additionally, no description of the suspects was released, and information about the minor victim is not available to the public to protect their privacy. Zagreb police briefly reported: "Two still-unknown younger perpetrators attacked a minor and stole his scooter."
The injured minor received medical attention at the Zagreb Children's Hospital. After examination, doctors determined that the injuries were serious. The type and extent of the injuries, as well as the minor's current health condition, were not specified in the police report. Police confirmed that doctors found the injuries to be "serious bodily harm."
The case has drawn particular public attention because the robbery occurred in broad daylight and resulted in serious injury to a minor. Police have not yet disclosed whether there are witnesses to the attack or any video footage that could aid the investigation. The attack took place in Starotrnjanska Street near the center of Zagreb, and the perpetrators are described as two younger men.
The Zagreb Police Department is conducting an active criminal investigation to determine the identities of the attackers and all circumstances surrounding the incident. As the investigation is ongoing, there is no official confirmation of possible arrests. Police have also not released an estimate of the stolen scooter's value.
While gathering information and checking available leads, the robbery in Trnje remains the subject of an intensive criminal investigation. More information is expected once police complete necessary procedures or decide to release new official data. For now, the only confirmed facts are the attack itself, the theft of the scooter, and the serious injuries sustained by the minor victim.
