In the area of the Vienna Margaretengürtel, a member of the Parking Space Monitoring Group (PÜG) was attacked and injured by two individuals on Thursday.
It is reported that the member attempted to de-escalate a confrontation between two individuals from the drug scene and was subsequently bitten and spat on by the 32-year-old suspect. Additionally, the woman allegedly shouted xenophobic insults and "Sieg Heil" while restraining the PÜG member. Officers from the readiness unit on patrol noticed the incident. According to a statement from the Vienna police on Friday, the Austrian woman was provisionally arrested. After consultation with the Vienna Public Prosecutor's Office, she was charged with serious bodily harm and under the Prohibition Act while being released on her own recognizance.
