A 37-year-old Viennese man stabbed a friend in the calf with a knife on Saturday evening on Geiselbergstraße in Favoriten.
As police spokeswoman Irina Steirer reported to APA on Sunday afternoon, there had been disagreements between the two related to a motorcycle, which took a less than amicable turn. The later victim had lent his friend the motorcycle. When the 37-year-old returned it, the 29-year-old raised complaints. After a verbal dispute, the 37-year-old suddenly pulled out a knife and stabbed. He then fled the scene.
The search for the man was still ongoing on Sunday. Since his identity is securely established, his arrest is likely only a matter of time. The knife attacker is being investigated for intentional serious bodily harm, the police spokeswoman reported.
