The store detective of a shopping center in Vienna-Favoriten noticed on Wednesday evening how a man made a pair of sports shoes disappear into his backpack and then proceeded to the store exit without paying.
When officers from the Keplergasse police station arrived at the scene, they found suspected stolen goods from another store in the suspect's backpack. The 25-year-old (citizen of North Macedonia) confessed to both shoplifting incidents.

During the official action, it was revealed that he was already under investigation for suspicion of commercial theft due to previous cases (total damage: over 2,000 euros). The 25-year-old, who does not have a permanent residence in the federal territory, was provisionally arrested and transferred to a correctional facility by order of the Vienna public prosecutor's office.
