The Vienna police are investigating a robbery that already occurred on April 14, 2024, around 3:00 a.m. in the Favoriten district. A 39-year-old man stated that he had made contact with the alleged perpetrator online.

According to the police, a low double-digit euro amount was taken from the victim. During the escape, the suspect is said to have also hit the 39-year-old's car with the belt, damaging the vehicle.
