After the stabbing in Geiselbergstraße in Vienna-Favoriten on Saturday, the suspect, a 37-year-old Syrian citizen, was arrested early Sunday morning in the shared apartment of his family in Favoriten.

According to police spokesman Philipp Haßlinger, his wife and son tried to convince the officers of the city police command Favoriten, who were searching for the fugitive, that they had not seen him.

Suspect in Vienna-Favoriten confessed

The uniformed officers decided to check the apartment anyway and found him sleeping. He was arrested without resistance and confessed to the knife attack on the 29-year-old opponent. The 29-year-old had given the suspect his moped and money while he was in custody. Upon his release, he wanted both back. However, the 37-year-old is said to have believed that the money and the moped now belonged to him. In the argument with the younger man, he stabbed him in the lower leg.
