The 24-year-old (citizen of North Macedonia) then allegedly threatened their mutual 60-year-old acquaintance with a broken bottle. The two men just managed to escape from the apartment and run to the police.

Subsequently, officers from the Brigittenau city police command and the special unit WEGA went to the crime scene, where they encountered the alleged perpetrator and were able to provisionally arrest him. A restraining order, a ban on approaching, and a provisional weapons ban were issued against the man, who did not want to comment on the allegations.

The 24-year-old was reported at large on suspicion of making dangerous threats and causing bodily harm, as ordered by the Vienna public prosecutor's office.
