A fire on the roof of a commercial building in Lienz has kept the Lienz police busy since September. It has now become known that, after further investigation, a 21-year-old admitted to having started the fire.
On September 19, the Lienz fire brigade had to leave shortly before 11 p.m. At that time, for unknown reasons, a fire broke out on the roof of a commercial building near the Lienz train station.

Investigation led to the suspected perpetrator
As police now report, a 21-year-old local man has been identified as an “urgent suspect.” During further investigation, a clue led to the young man. He allegedly started the fire with cardboard boxes. “The 21-year-old confessed to the crime,” investigators said.
Probably another violation has been resolved
