Laid out with perpetrator
Robbery in CBD store fails because of female employee
Spectacular scenes took place in Vienna's city center late Tuesday afternoon. A 23-year-old man allegedly tried to rob a CBD store - but his plan failed miserably ...
The suspect allegedly threatened the employee with a blank-firing pistol and demanded cash from the till. But the woman refused, which led to a violent scuffle. The fight moved onto the street, where the man pulled his victim to the ground and slightly injured her.
Civil courage prevented worse
Two courageous passers-by observed the scene and intervened immediately! They overpowered the attacker, disarmed him and held him on the ground until the police arrived a short time later and arrested the 23-year-old for the time being.
The officers seized the weapon and several bags of suspected drugs - including cannabis and cocaine. The injured employee was first treated at the scene and was then released to go home.
Perpetrator confesses - investigation ongoing
The 23-year-old confessed to the police. He was charged on suspicion of attempted aggravated robbery and under the Narcotics Act. He was also banned from using weapons for the time being. The Vienna State Office of Criminal Investigation, Center/East Branch, has taken over the further investigation.
