A 24-year-old was sentenced to an additional six months in prison on Tuesday in Linz for making dangerous threats and possessing weapons.

In March, the man announced to a twelve-year-old girl on a Linz city bus that he would kill a 33-year-old man from Linz "because he slept with my ex-girlfriend."

Man Arrested

After making the threat, he put on a balaclava, played with bullets, and showed the child a pistol in his inner breast pocket. It was a black blank-firing gun. The girl described the incident to the police in the presence of her mother and two witnesses. The 24-year-old was arrested the same day.

Verdict Not Final

The additional prison sentence took into account a previous conviction of twelve months probation for various offenses. The prosecution waived the right to appeal, as did the defendant, but since he was not represented by a lawyer, the verdict is not yet final, according to the court.
