In October 2019, a 25-year-old Tyrolean man shot and killed five people in just a few minutes. His ex-girlfriend, her father, her mother, her brother - and a friend of the girl. "Because I hated them all so much", the man later said during interrogations. 

It was October 6, 2019, a few minutes before six o'clock in the morning, when a young man came into a police station in the center of Kitzbühel and placed a pistol, a cartridge magazine and three knives on the desk.
