Date at Tullnerfeld Station Escalated - Now Man is Dead

In Lower Austria, investigations are underway regarding an incident in the area of Tullnerfeld station (district of Tulln). As a result of a dispute, a man had jumped onto the hood of his opponent's car and fell to the ground after a few meters of driving.

Man Fell from Car Hood and Died

He was flown to a hospital and, according to "NÖN", succumbed to his head injuries. The driver was reported, and the public prosecutor's office in St. Pölten is formally investigating on suspicion of murder.

According to the online report by "NÖN", the incident dates back to the end of February. Three people were involved at the time, in addition to the driver and the later deceased, also his partner, said Leopold Bien, spokesman for the public prosecutor's office in St. Pölten, to APA on Friday. Investigations are now also being conducted against the woman.

Rendezvous as Possible Background

The background of the trio's meeting could have been a kind of rendezvous, which eventually escalated, as also reported by the "Kurier". The driver wanted to drive away with his car, and his opponent suddenly jumped onto the hood.

There is still "a lot to clarify" in the case, emphasized Bien. This includes, for example, how the man got onto the vehicle and also whether the driver might have been in a self-defense situation. Due to the circumstances, the proceedings against the accused are being conducted "at liberty".
