In Vienna-Margareten, a 50-year-old Austrian was arrested on Tuesday. He is accused of threatening an employee and previously not paying for two taxi rides.

On Tuesday, around 8 a.m., a police operation took place in a venue in Vienna-Margareten. A 33-year-old employee had called emergency services after a guest allegedly behaved aggressively and shouted loudly. According to the police, the man allegedly demanded the employee end the call – otherwise, he would kill him.

Immediate Search by Vienna Police Led to Arrest

Before the police arrived, the suspect fled but was apprehended near the venue during an immediate search. Investigations also revealed that he allegedly did not pay for two taxi rides the previous night.

Prosecutor Ordered Detention

An interrogation was initially not possible, according to the police, as the man was behaving psychologically conspicuously. On the order of the Vienna prosecutor's office, he was taken to a detention center.
