A large police force in Vienna-Döbling caused fear and terror among residents on Wednesday morning. Several officers had tried to gain access to an apartment there. The area around the estate was cordoned off and residents were not allowed outside during the operation!

"It makes your heart sink", says a resident of the affected housing estate in Radelmayergasse. The Viennese had just been sitting on the balcony when suddenly several WEGA police officers stood armed in front of the house.

The operation was in full swing for about an hour. The task force left again at around 9 o'clock. The reason for the operation was still unclear on Wednesday morning ...

However, police spokesman Mattias Schuster confirmed the operation to the "Krone" newspaper. According to Schuster, the reason for the operation was a man who had previously been spotted on the street with a firearm.

The man had opened the door to his apartment so that the emergency services could search it. "It was determined that the suspected firearm was a deceptively real toy gun," reports Schuster.

Nevertheless, there are consequences for the apparently intoxicated man - he was charged with disorderly conduct.
