Meidling and margaret: two robberies within a few hours

On Friday, the Viennese police were challenged several times when two robberies took place in the city. In the afternoon there was an incident in Meidling in which a 22-year-old was threatened by two unknown people with a weapon. The perpetrators asked for his mobile phone and took an extremely aggressive manner by kicking him with blows and kicks before pulling the iPhone from then.

A little later, in Margaret , an 18-year-old was asked about his jacket with his friend in Kohlgasse. A trio of young people demanded the expensive Moncler jacket and threatened violence if he did not follow. In the meantime, the friend informed the police. The intervening police team was quickly on site and was able to grasp one of the suspects, but not without experiencing an interesting turn.

unusual persecution

A passerby helped an official by providing him with his bike, which led to a rapid persecution of the fleeing perpetrator. The fleeting, a 17-year-old Syrian, was finally arrested in Brandmayergasse. The Vienna public prosecutor's office then decided to show him at a free foot, but his role remains important in the attack. The previously stolen jacket later turned out to be a fake, which ironically makes the situation appear even absurd.

The two accomplices of the arrested could escape. The police describe the fleeting as young men who are slim and wore hooded jackets; They are about 1.80 meters tall. The investigators ask everyone who may have been witnessing the events or saw the perpetrator to report, including anonymous. Information can be given to the State Criminal Police Office in Vienna on 01/31310/DW43800. These developments once again show the challenges with which the police are faced with the fight against street crime.
