During work – Vienna: Burnt body of a man discovered in the cellar

Date:

On Friday afternoon, a burned body was found in the basement in Vienna-Hietzing during work due to water damage.

The witness immediately called the police. The fire brigade was also present.

Probably homeless
Police currently believe the body belonged to a homeless man who spent the night in the basement. The fire is said to have been caused by an open flame or glowing particles, which subsequently damaged a nearby water pipe.

Autopsy ordered
As a result, the fire extinguished itself, but the basement was partially flooded. An autopsy was ordered. The male body had severe burns.

The identity of the deceased and further background to the incident are still under investigation.
