Attacker pulls out knife
Argument in park escalates over soccer match
A soccer match in Vienna-Margareten ended in a dramatic turn of events on Sunday. A 38-year-old man allegedly threatened a 26-year-old man with a knife because he thought the latter was being too loud during the game. The older man was provisionally arrested.
The incident occurred on Sunday afternoon in Einsiedlerpark when a soccer match was taking place in the cage there. Witnesses reported that the 38-year-old was becoming increasingly agitated by the younger man's loudness and behavior. Things finally escalated: the man pulled out a paring knife and threatened his 26-year-old opponent.
The police officers were quickly on the scene and arrested the Kosovan-born man. The knife, which the perpetrator had hidden in a nearby bush, was immediately seized.
Attacker violated weapons ban
The 38-year-old partially confessed to the officers and was released. The man was already subject to a weapons ban.
