Crazy act in Vienna – witness: “Headed the victim’s head like a football”

Date:

Lunch time in the terrace at Meidlinger Platzl. “In a bad mood,” an 18-year-old attacked a 53-year-old passerby. Now the young perpetrator ended up in court. Was it attempted murder?

It should have been a leisurely walk to the bank. But when 53-year-old Ronald F. walked back to his home on Meidlinger Hauptstrasse on May 2, an incomprehensible incident changed his life.

Film tear for the Schanigarten
“I looked at my bank statements when I felt addressed and stood still for a moment.” – He remembers that before the film tore off. Ten days in the hospital followed multiple injuries such as broken ankles and cheekbones, persistent pain and psychological distress with frequent panic attacks.

Victim and perpetrator did not know each other
For what happened to Mr F., an 18-year-old had to answer to the Vienna court on Monday for attempted murder. The frail defendant defended by Anita Schattner was sitting in a cafe on Meidlinger Platzl that day. He had previously smoked cannabis and drank whiskey.

Ronald F. went down with the second goal
“The perpetrator was in a bad mood and in an aggressive mood,” the indictment said. When Ronald F. stopped at the guest garden around noon, the young man nudged him. Moments later, he hit his random victim. At the second goal, Ronald F. fell to the ground and hit the concrete hard with his head.

A jury found intentional aggravated assault
“Although his victim was lying motionless on the ground, he kicked the man twice in the head with full force,” said the public prosecutor. A witness confirmed: “He kicked as hard as he would step on a football.” However, the jury decided to intentionally inflict serious bodily harm: 3.5 years in prison. The victim receives 7370 euros in compensation. The suspect assumes that the public prosecutor is still deliberating.
