Date:

On New Year’s Eve, there was a mass brawl between 20 and 30 people in the city of Salzburg. In addition, a security officer fired several times with a pistol in the air.

Two of the people involved in the brawl were injured, Salzburg police said on Sunday. The incident happened in a restaurant in the center of the airport.

Temporary gun ban issued
A temporary arms ban has been issued against the 38-year-old Romanian security service employee and two pistols and magazines have been seized. Six bullet casings were found at the scene, police said.

Fire on the Geisberg probably caused by fireworks
Fireworks probably caused a fire on the Gaisberg on New Year’s Eve. Around 8:00 pm, the undergrowth on the west side of the Gaisbergspitze caught fire, quickly spreading over the dry area and covering about 1000 square meters. Firefighters quickly extinguished the flames and prevented them from spreading to the trees. During an inspection of the fire area, remnants of pyrotechnic objects were found, according to the police.
