On Monday evening, a courageous employee in Linz managed to prevent a man from obtaining money during a robbery at a gas station. The 54-year-old refused to hand over the money in a harsh tone - despite having a gun pointed at her - the police reported.

Around 8:20 PM, the armed man entered the gas station with a hood pulled over his head, sunglasses, and a black scarf covering his mouth and nose. He held out a garbage bag to the employee and shouted "Robbery, give me the money." After the woman firmly refused, the perpetrator - still holding the gun - instructed a customer at the gas station to go to the cash register. The 54-year-old seized the opportunity, ran outside, and screamed for help, prompting the perpetrator to flee without any loot.

The armed man fled, and a search was initially unsuccessful. The Upper Austria State Criminal Office is requesting information at 059133/40 3333. The State Criminal Office has taken over the investigation, and the Chamber of Commerce has offered a reward of 1,000 euros for useful information leading to the identification of the perpetrator.
