Rostock (dpa / mv) - Ten large holes in the floor, on which manhole covers should have been, called the police in Rostock on the scene.
According to the officials, a witness had seen two young people pry open the manhole cover on Tuesday night and dialed the emergency number.
The emergency services met an intoxicated 15-year-old near the crime scene who was standing in a bush with an iron bar in hand.
He stole the pole from a construction site.
He gave no reference to the friend with whom he is said to have been on the road.
During the police operation, the suspect reportedly put several manhole covers back on himself.
The officers then found more levered manhole covers that were spread out on the roadway and on the sidewalk in Etkar-André-Straße.
The police wrote reports of attempted, dangerous intrusion into road traffic and of the theft of low-value items.
