The choice of shops was inconsistent, one was a bandage shop, and another was a catering business. After the suspects were recognized by the officers based on the description, they attempted to flee. The two Slovak citizens were caught, but the third initially escaped unnoticed.

The officers handed the 13-year-old over to child and youth services, while his one-year-older accomplice was taken to a detention center by order of the Vienna public prosecutor's office. According to Haßlinger, he had already been noticed in connection with criminal offenses in the past. He made a partial confession.
