Shock in Hallwang: attack with a firearm on young people!

Hallwang, Österreich - in Hallwang there was a serious incident in which two young men were threatened with a firearm by a group of teenager on Tuesday. These men, between 17 and 19 years old, stood out in a place from which they assumed that the victims would buy addictive substances there. Instead of the expected transaction, the victims, 14 and 18 years old, were forced to issue cash in the amount of a higher three -digit amount before they could drive home unharmed. According to this frightening experience, the victims immediately informed the police, which led to the arrest of two of the suspects, while the other two could initially remain at large, as ORF reports .

blackmail with protection money

Another worrying event occurred on Thursday in the basement of an multi -party house when three young men met again about a discussion at that time in autumn 2024. The 19-year-old Russian and the 18-year-old Romanian demanded several hundred euros from a 15-year-old victim as a so-called "protection money". In the event of a threat, the victim handed over a keychain and a smaller cash. This incident was also reported to the police, which arrested the suspects on the same evening and also secured a brnal ring as a suspected weapon, as reported today at noon.

The arrested are not confessed and claim that the entire situation was only a joke, while the 18-year-old Romanian was already banning upright arms. Both are now in the Leoben Justice, where further investigations into possible other crimes are going against them.
