Second ATM explosion in Vienna-Floridsdorf within 24 hours

in Vienna-Floridsdorf there was a second incident in the night in the night: an ATM was blown up. This incident happened after the first act of explosive within just 24 hours. The first ATM that was chased up was on a bank branch on Brünner Strasse.

This time, however, the explosion occurred in a shopping center, more precisely in Trillergasse, around 2.50 a.m. Here, too, the perpetrators used explosives to put their plan into practice and caused a large chaos in the explosion.

the perpetrators and the investigation

The police are currently looking for three unknown men who are considered a suspect in this case. After the explosion, their escape took place in an unknown direction, which is why the officials have so far received no specific clues. According to police spokesman Philipp Haßlinger, a connection between the two explosions is "probably", which indicates a method of organized crime.

So far, it is still unclear how high the damage has been and how much money the perpetrators stole in their project if they were successful in their plan. The Vienna State Criminal Police Office has started the investigation and is urgently looking for witnesses. People who have information about the fleeing of the perpetrators or have observed them suspiciously are asked to report.

Information can be sent to the Vienna State Criminal Police Office by phone at 01-31310-33800, including anonymous. The pressure on the search actions increases the accumulation of such incidents, which increases the concerns of the residents and raises the question of how the security situation in the region develops.
