Forest is surrounded
Drexler: Car recently parked, weapon found
New findings in the search for Roland Drexler: His getaway car, which was found on Friday morning, was probably parked there the night before. The police also found a long gun in the vehicle. This means that the suspected double murderer is probably still on the road with two of his original three weapons.
The police received an emergency call on Friday morning: a witness reported that he had found Roland Drexler's Caddy in a wooded area between Altenfelden and Arnreit in the Mühlviertel. The results of the investigation then emerged on Saturday morning.
Open questions
The car was probably only parked at the site on Friday night. This was the result of further witness statements, which were combined by the police. However, it is not yet clear exactly when the Caddy was last used.
In addition, the police found a long gun in the parked vehicle - it was not camouflaged or hidden under foliage. Originally, Roland Drexler, who is said to have shot two people on Monday, had fled with two long guns and a handgun. It can therefore be assumed that the wanted suspected double murderer is still traveling with a rifle and a pistol.
Car searched
On Saturday morning, the police thoroughly searched Drexler's car, which is still at the scene of the crime, but had to proceed with extreme caution, as there is still a risk that the fugitive is in the immediate vicinity.
Wooded area still surrounded
The wooded area near where the body was found is still surrounded by emergency services and the search is in full swing. Around 250 emergency services and numerous technical resources are involved.
As early as Saturday night, the police searched the area around the location where the getaway car was found, near the scene of the first murder in Fraunschlag (municipality of Altenfelden), with 250 officers. There is still no trace of Drexler, even drones and thermal imaging cameras were unable to track down the suspected perpetrator during the night.
