Attempted Robbery in Vienna Subway Station: Who Knows the Suspect?

Around 8:25 PM, the victim was walking down the stairs to the platform of the U6 station Längenfeldgasse in Vienna-Meidling and stopped briefly about halfway down. The unknown perpetrator approached the woman from the platform and initially walked past her. However, he stopped behind the victim and suddenly attempted to violently snatch the handbag that the woman was wearing across her body. He tugged so hard and for so long at the bag that eventually the strap broke. The woman fought back with all her strength, preventing the perpetrator from taking the bag.
The Vienna police suspect that the suspect is a teenager. He has light hair and a slim build. He is about 160cm tall and was wearing a dark T-shirt and dark shorts at the time of the crime. Information (also anonymous) is being accepted at 01-
31310-57210.
