Falkenberg Municipality says the thefts this year have been unusually extensive and brazen. According to SVT Halland, Janna Skyllberg, head of the park and coast unit, described the incidents as worse than usual and occurring right in central Falkenberg. The municipality had ensured that the public flower beds in Falkenberg were blooming just before Easter.
A large quantity of flowers was stolen from these public flower beds. It is not known how many flowers were taken, who stole them, or what specific types were targeted. The exact timing of the thefts has not been disclosed, and it remains unclear what measures, if any, are being taken to prevent future occurrences.
We think it has been worse this year actually, and right in central Falkenberg.
