Unemployed man arrested
After body found in Klagenfurt: Arrest!
Following the surprising discovery of a body in a Klagenfurt apartment building, events are now unfolding rapidly: A friend of the deceased, who also notified the police, has confessed to the crime—due to a dispute over money, he grabbed a hammer and struck the pensioner!
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen Further information on the suspect and the crime is expected Thursday morning, according to Colonel Gottlieb Türk, head of the Carinthia State Criminal Police Office. As reported, a 64-year-old man was found dead on Wednesday in a workshop in the annex of a residential building in eastern Klagenfurt.
Until now, it was not known exactly what had happened, nor who had found the deceased. However, due to the severe injuries, it was quickly suspected that foul play might be involved. “Foul play could not be ruled out; rather, it had to be strongly assumed. That is why the State Criminal Police Office was notified immediately,” explains Türk. The district attorney’s office therefore ordered an autopsy.
The pensioner, a 64-year-old man from Carinthia, died of a traumatic brain injury. “The cause was likely multiple blows to the head, presumably with a hammer,” says Türk: “The person who found the body, a 44-year-old Carinthian, unemployed but a trained auto body painter, was arrested that afternoon.” The man was questioned for hours and then confessed. The two were friends and worked together repairing cars at the local workshop. On Wednesday, they disagreed over payments—a fight ensued. The 44-year-old struck his colleague with “brutal force.”
Türk: “Two hammers were found in the suspect’s vehicle that could be the potential murder weapons. However, this is still the subject of further investigation.”
