Burglar Couple Caught Red-Handed in Vienna-Favoriten

Last night, the tenant of an apartment on Laxenburger Straße in Vienna-Favoriten alerted the police when she observed two suspicious individuals through the peephole, who were tampering with the key safe attached next to the apartment door. The man and the woman violently tore the key safe from the wall, broke it open, and took the keys contained inside.
