Shock and grief prevailed in the small community after a 15-month-old toddler was found dead in an apartment. Lying next to him was the boy's mother, seriously injured. According to the "Krone" newspaper, the father made the shocking discovery in the afternoon and immediately alerted the emergency services.
Large-scale police operation
According to initial information, the bloody deed is likely to be a murder and attempted suicide. The woman was taken to hospital in critical condition, said Stefan Pfandler, head of the Lower Austria State Criminal Police Office. As a result, it has not yet been possible to question her.
The State Criminal Police Office was working in the Waldviertel community with the homicide and life and limb division and the crime scene investigation team. During the course of the evening, evidence was secured and initial interviews were conducted with those involved.
Memories of horrific crimes
The case brings back memories of the recent horrific crimes in Kitzbühel and Leoben. A 39-year-old mother grabbed a kitchen knife in her family's apartment in Leoben while her 11-year-old son was sitting in the living room. His name was Samuel. According to information provided to the "Krone" newspaper, the woman stated that she stabbed him "because he was possessed by the devil."
Days later, the next terrible news came, this time from Kitzbühel. The body of a five-year-old child was found on the first floor of an apartment building. An acquaintance of the family raised the alarm. The mother's body was also found at the scene; she had killed herself. How she killed her son remains unclear. There were no external injuries. Was he poisoned? Everyone is waiting for the results of the toxicological and histological reports.
