Tatort Graz: Investigations completed after the killing spree - witnesses interviewed!

Graz, Österreich - On June 13, 2025, the crime scene work was completed after the tragic killing spree at a Graz high school. Emergency services and investigators have carried out intensive gear security work in the past few days in order to reconstruct the exact processes of terrible events. According to vienna.at , the investigation focuses primarily on testimony and the evaluation of collected data.

The talent reconstruction and the evidence of evidence in the Borg Dreierschützengasse were carried out using the latest 3D laser technology. This technology that has been in use since 2020 has already proven to be helpful in other missions. Investigators question over 100 witnesses and evaluated data that comes from an upload platform. A total of 683 files were uploaded by Friday morning, including 371 videos that could be relevant for the investigation. The platform remains online to give space to further testimony.

emotional processing of events

Norbert Urabl, deputy director of the Borg Dreierschützengasse, described the difficult situation at the school in an interview with ZIB2. Urabl describes the current mood as emotional and challenging. The first bang noises were initially not to be classified and later had to be recognized as shots. Regular preparation for emergency situations, including annual fire protection exercises, was important in this crisis. Students often asked about the rules of conduct in the event of a killing spree, which contributed to reacting properly.

Urabl emphasizes that the reality of such an attack is hardly imaginable. He never thought that the information that is conveyed in the exercises would actually be needed. Although normal school operations are currently unimaginable for him, a return for students who want this is sought. These students should be given the opportunity to enter parts of the school in which no killing spree took place.

support measures and fundraisers

In the sequence of the killing spree, the city of Graz has set up an official donation account to help the victims and the bereaved. Mayor Elke Kahr and the director of the Borg are behind this initiative. The donation account entitled "Graz-Holding together donations Borg Dreierschützengasse" has the IBAN: AT59 1400 0009 1026 0197. In addition, a crowdfunding campaign for "Gofundme" has started, which has previously earned around 4,400 euros. The need for further examinations is also discussed, since the autopsy of the eleven corpses are complete, but the results are not yet available.
