Drug raid in Wiener Neustadt: Hidden cannabis plantations discovered

In Wiener Neustadt, the police broke into an empty building on Monday evening, which is associated with organized drug crime. The authorities continued their investigation on Tuesday. The spokesman for the police, Johann Baumschlager, confirmed that the state criminal offices of Lower Austria and Vienna were leading the investigation and the area around the affected property was cordoned off by 10 p.m. A suspect was able to flee in the necessary time.

The search of the multi -storey house turned out to be extensive. In addition to a security check, the special unit Cobra as well as drones and service dogs were also used. In addition, a fist fir weapon in the object was secured. According to Baumschlager, there was “perpetrator contact” in the interior, although the suspect could flee. The investigation focuses on suspicion of addictive crime and criminal associations. Tuesdays were in particular to secure traces of traces on the agenda.

Attention through high electricity invoices

The cannabis plantations that were discovered in the building noticed the authorities due to unusually high electricity bills. An employee of an energy supplier had alerted the police after determining abnormalities in the number of electricity consumption. During the review, it turned out that the fuse box had been manipulated, and several cables led to the first floor where the plantation was located. This discovery illustrates how criminal activities sometimes come to light through everyday anomalies.

The investigation is now the goal of uncovering the background and details of this criminal association. The place where the plantations were discovered is known as the former Brodtisch passage. The police have set themselves the goal of gaining further information. This can possibly lead to the clarification of further cases and to arrest the fleeting suspect. In a city that is regularly confronted with challenges from drug crime, this is a clear indication that the authorities remain vigilant.

The situation remains tense and the police have announced that they are ready for further missions at any time. Further information on the progress of the investigation can be read at www.s.at become.
