Heavily armed police took up positions around Asten on Sunday evening – all the way to Linz and almost to Steyr. A drug deal had escalated and a gun was involved.
“So what’s going on? Are these still after-effects of the derby?” – phone calls reached the editorial staff of “Krone”. The police officers who had successfully ensured security at the Linz Derby were packed up long ago. No, an alarm investigation is underway.
Who is the victim, who is the perpetrator?
When asked, the police confirmed that a drugs transfer had gone wrong in Asten at the Frunpark that evening. And it turned into a robbery. It was still unclear that evening whether the buyers had taken the drugs from the dealers or whether the dealers had robbed the buyers of their money.
In any case, the injured alerted the police and told them that there was a weapon in the getaway car. Therefore, as a precaution, an alarm search was activated, which was still ongoing at 8 p.m.
