Several police patrols had to be called to the Venediger Au area in Vienna-Leopoldstadt shortly before midnight on Sunday because of an injured person. A man had allegedly been stabbed and robbed by two unknown perpetrators. 

The victim stated that he had been attacked in the back by two perpetrators with a knife and then robbed. The strangers then fled in the direction of the Nordbahn site. 

The injured man was treated by the Vienna Emergency Services and taken to hospital. The search for the perpetrators has so far been unsuccessful. The investigation is ongoing.
