26-Year-Old in Vienna-Brigittenau Threatened Friends with Murder

In the stairwell in Vienna-Brigittenau, officers from the Pappenheimgasse police station were able to detain and provisionally arrest a rampaging 26-year-old (Austrian citizen). The heavily intoxicated man is said to have physically attacked two of his friends during a visit and threatened to kill them. When they gave him a tip regarding his relationship with his ex-girlfriend - "you deserve something better" - the man lost it. He wanted to rekindle the relationship with the woman. When his victims (aged 19 and 21) locked the 26-year-old out of the apartment, he repeatedly punched and kicked the apartment door.
