66-Year-Old Robbed During Home Invasion: One Perpetrator Caught in Vienna-Favoriten

After intensive investigations, one of the suspected perpetrators, a 37-year-old man from Bosnia and Herzegovina, was apprehended on February 17 in Quellenstraße in Vienna-Favoriten around 10:00 PM. The arrest was made following surveillance with the support of the Cobra. A loaded handgun, a large amount of cash, and jewelry were seized from the suspect. Investigators suspect further crimes, and the search for his two accomplices continues.

Victim Was Able to Free Herself

During the home invasion in Döbling, numerous valuable pieces of jewelry and a mid-six-figure sum of cash were stolen. The perpetrators also took other valuables such as expensive handbags and exclusive writing instruments from the brand Cartier. The 66-year-old, who remained physically unharmed, was able to free herself from her restraints less than an hour after the perpetrators fled. She ran to a neighbor, from where the police were called. The stolen Mini Cooper was left by the perpetrators not far from the crime scene and was discovered the following day.
