Five agents in Graz – police officer dead: Upper Austria murder investigators take over

Date:

Following the fatal shot at the Styrian State Police headquarters in Graz, the matter is under investigation by officials from Upper Austria. And for good reason.

They have already seen and experienced a lot, but this mission is also something special for the murder investigators from Upper Austria. Together with the crime scene team, a trainer and an officer of the National Criminal Investigation Service, they have been investigating the case of the fatal shots at the headquarters of the state police in Graz since Wednesday evening.

With every firearm use
“A total of five people are deployed here,” says Markus Lamb, spokesman for the police in Styria. The reason: You want to make sure there’s no hint of bias. Therefore, every time a police officer uses a firearm, the authority of another federal state investigates.

Toxicology report
The investigations are now being carried out jointly and in close consultation with the public prosecutor’s office in Graz. “There are still a few hearings to be held, of course we still have to wait for the reports,” Lamb said. Because in addition to the report of a weapons expert, a toxicological report was also ordered. A breath analysis has already been performed, which was negative.
