Former Volkswagen garage Sint-Veroon

An auto theft occurred at this location. The car would later be linked to activities of the Bende van Nijvel.

It's May 10, 1982. That day an Austin Martin was stolen in Elsene. With that Austin Martin, still unknown perpetrators drove to Lembeek. They stopped in front of the Volkswagen garage Sint-Veroon that was located here at that time. A VW Santana was stolen.

With this vehicle, a theft was later committed at the grocery store Piot in Maubeuge and shots were fired at police officers with a 7.65 mm weapon. The same weapon and the same vehicle were used in the robbery of the arms dealer Dekaise in Waver. The vehicle was abandoned in Ukkel in the Sonian Forest due to the damage caused during the shootout in Hoeilaart.
