The man was caught trying to sell a stolen e-bike. He had previously offered it for sale on an online classifieds platform, whereupon the rightful owner recognized his bicycle and notified the police.

During the search of the suspect's apartment and his workshop in Vienna-Meidling, a total of five more e-bikes, eleven bicycles, and eight laptops were discovered, all allegedly stolen and accompanied by forged purchase contracts. In an initial interrogation, the 61-year-old partially admitted to the allegations. He was charged with suspicion of commercial fencing and commercial fraud and was taken to a detention center on the orders of the Vienna public prosecutor's office.
