Hikers made a special discovery on the first day of the new year in Rauchwart (Burgenland). We are now investigating what causes this.
New Year’s Eve was celebrated in a grand manner in Rauchwart in the Güssing district. Many people used the day after New Year’s Eve to get some exercise in the fresh air and take a walk along the frozen reservoir. But there an unusual surprise awaited them: a small hermitage lay on the ice of the lake.
The hiker called the police
“I just saw that something was there. But I couldn’t tell if it was open or still locked,” says the man who discovered the safe on Wednesday while walking with his family. He immediately called the police, who in turn called the fire brigade to rescue him from the ice With the help of a rescue basket stretcher, the white furniture safe was finally brought ashore and handed over to the officials.
Investigations are underway
Exactly how the safe got there is now a mystery. The focus of speculation is whether it could have been a stolen safe and what happened to the contents. Did the perpetrators want to dump evidence in the lake and didn’t notice that the water was already frozen? The exact background will become clear in the course of the investigation.
