The robbery was committed on one of the agricultural enterprises of the Blagoveshchensk district of the Kirovograd region.

Unidentified persons stole the seed from the farmers, as a result of which the farm was damaged in the amount of about 3 million UAH. In the middle of the night, five unidentified people dressed in balaclava entered the warehouse of the farm.

Using threats with a firearm, the attackers tied up the guards and took them to the fields behind the warehouses. The criminal group took possession of seeds worth about 3 million UAH. Having loaded bags of seeds on the vehicle, the bandits fled the scene.

Law enforcement agencies began a pre-trial investigation under the article “robbery” (Article 187 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine). Earlier it was reported that an avalanche of similar robberies of farms swept across the Odessa region.

The robbers took away seed, plant protection products and livestock from entrepreneurs. So, unknown people stole a flock of sheep from 250 heads from one of the farmers in the region. The farmer left the house for several hours, and when he returned, he discovered that the whole herd of sheep had disappeared. The victim suggests that the animals were loaded into livestock trucks or taken away in their own way.
