Enigmatic vandale devastated 84 cars in Vienna-Donaustadt!

In the early morning hours of March 16, 2025, an unknown man transformed the streets from Vienna-Donaustadt into a chaos. As already reported, the perpetrator damaged a total of 84 parked vehicles in a rapid campaign. The police were alerted when an attentive resident noticed the hustle and bustle around 6:30 a.m. and immediately chose the emergency call. But when the emergency services arrived at the scene, the suspect had long since disappeared, and an immediate search was unsuccessful, as 5min.at reported.

The investigation into the case was immediately accepted by the Donaustadt city police command. Officials secured numerous traces and evaluated extensive video material. Relatively quickly led to a 30-year-old German citizen who had already been housed in a hospital on the evening of March 16, 2025. The investigators had found that this man in the first district with a similar method as it was used in Donaustadt damaged several vehicles. The police are now intensively continuing this connection to the deeds in Donaustadt, as vienna.at reported.

The exact amount of damage is still unclear, but a variety of vehicles that were parked in the adjacent streets has been damaged. The police have looked for relevant information to identify the alleged perpetrator, who is described as a young, darkly dressed man. Local residents are called to make reports that could lead to the perpetrator's captivation.
