Heated scenes unfolded on Monday afternoon during a traffic dispute in Vienna-Alsergrund.

Because a 41-year-old driver allegedly did not let him into the lane, a 68-year-old pulled out a gun and held it threateningly out of the window, reported the state police department. The 41-year-old then fled in his vehicle and alerted the police. The 68-year-old is being investigated on suspicion of dangerous threat.

Upon visiting the man at his home address, the police finally found that the weapon was a category B handgun. "The man has firearm-related documents," police spokeswoman Julia Schick told APA. The officers then reported the man and imposed a temporary firearm ban on him. The 41-year-old was also reported on suspicion of dangerous threat.
