On Saturday, two armed robberies were committed in supermarkets in Vienna. As the police announced on Sunday, the first serious robbery was committed at a store in the city center around 16:45. Shortly before 18:00, the next attack was in Meidling…
An unknown person pulled out a gun in the cash register of a store in the 1st district, demanded money from an employee and fled after handing it over. A search immediately launched by the alerted police yielded nothing. The Vienna State Criminal Investigation Department, Central East Division, has taken over the investigation.
