Police in action: man shoots with air pressure rifle from terrace!

A sunny Saturday in Josefstadt, Vienna, took an unexpected turn when a 63-year-old man was seen on his roof terrace with an air pressure rifle. The alarmed neighbors, worried about this unusual sight, immediately informed the police. Shortly afterwards, numerous patrol cars and the Wiener Operating Group move to clarify the dangerous situation and exclude possible dangers, such as kosmo.at reported.

The officials quickly blocked the area around Josefstädter Straße and Fuhrmannsgasse and gained access to the apartment. To her surprise, it turned out that the man had only carried out target exercises on his balcony with an air pressure rifle. This declaration made relief among the emergency services, which had previously assumed a more serious threat. However, the consequences for the shooter did not fail to materialize, because the police confiscated all of the man's weapons that were legally observed and imposed a temporary ban on weapons. In addition, the 63-year-old has to expect an advertisement for order disorder, as wien.orf.at reported.
