The police in Germany arrested a Serbian man on Tuesday (January 31), who was suspected of killing two elderly women near the Schwäbisch Hall. Addressing a press conference, authorities in the southwestern state of Baden-Württemberg said on Wednesday that the suspect was taken into custody. According to the investigators, the man, 31, had moved to Germany with his family in December last year, a report by the Deutsche Welle said.&nbsp;

The Serbian national has been suspected of killing a 77-year-old woman in December last year and an 89-year-old woman in January in the Schwäbisch Hall region. During the investigation, authorities recovered objects used in the crime and DNA traces tied to the suspect, the report said.&nbsp;

Investigators believe he was behind a recent attempted armed robbery against an 83-year-old man. "We were able to arrest a 31-year-old Serbian citizen yesterday morning," regional police chief Reiner Moelle told news agency AFP. "He has declined to answer questions about the crimes," Moelle added.&nbsp;

A report on Wednesday said that special forces were deployed to arrest the man, who showed no resistance. Authorities are also investigating whether he had a role to play in the murder of a 94-year-old woman, whose body was found in Schwäbisch Hall in October 2020 close to the apartment of the deceased 77-year-old woman, the report added.&nbsp;Further details are awaited.&nbsp;
