This juicy affair is currently making the rounds in Upper Austrian police circles: a police officer is said to have caught his partner having an affair in the Mühlviertel region and snapped at the love game. What the investigation could mean for the career of the "heard cop".

It is only the end of April, but in a Mühlviertel community it is already clear what this year's "scandal of the year" is: last weekend, the police are said to have been called out twice to deal with a colleague. Not an operation like any other, but highly embarrassing, even for the investigators.
