17-Year-Old Raped in Basement in Vienna-Brigittenau

Officers from the Vienna-Brigittenau city police command were alerted by a witness who claimed to have seen two unknown men sexually assaulting a seemingly impaired young woman in the basement of a multi-party house. When the suspects noticed the witness, they fled. The girl is still in a hospital but is on the road to recovery, the authorities reported on Wednesday.

Suspects in Vienna-Brigittenau allegedly held the victim

The perpetrators reportedly approached the 17-year-old, who was likely impaired by medication, around 2:00 PM on the Treppelweg and offered to take her to a warm place. Together, the youths went into the basement of the house. There, the girl was threatened, held, and sexually abused, as she stated in an initial interrogation.

When the perpetrators realized they had been discovered by the witness, they fled. There is only a very vague description of the suspects: they are said to be between 14 and 16 years old and of Southern origin.
