In the case of the wanted man, who is said to be linked to the murder of several homeless people in Vienna, photos and videos were published by the police on Wednesday. Since then, “numerous tips” have been received. However, it is still unclear whether the person shown is a suspect, a witness or an uninvolved person.
A police spokesman said on Thursday that the information also included references to a specific person. Police suspect a serial perpetrator of the homeless murders. The Association of Friends of the Vienna Police has offered 10,000 euros for information leading to the identification of the perpetrator.
Woman survived
On July 12, a 56-year-old man was found stabbed to death on a park bench at Handelskai in Vienna-Brigittenau. On July 22, a 51-year-old woman suffered serious stab and laceration injuries in the Venediger Au in Vienna-Leopoldstadt. She survived.
All three in sleeping bags
Most recently, a knife attack was carried out in Vienna-Josefstadt near Hernalser Gurtel 22 on the night of August 9, in which the 55-year-old man was the first victim to succumb to his injuries. All three were in their sleeping bags at the time of the attack.
The police continue to ask for information
The wanted man can be seen on published video material in the Hernalser Belt area on August 9 between 1:19 a.m. and 1:40 a.m. and must report to the police. He is slim and about 1.85 to 1.92 meters tall. “The perceptions of this man are of great interest to researchers,” it was emphasized.
All information will be treated as strictly confidential and should be sent to the Vienna State Criminal Investigation Department on 01-31310-33800 or by email to tips-obdachlose@polizei.gv.at.
