Man Found Dead in Garage Exit in Vienna-Neubau: Autopsy Ordered

According to police spokeswoman Anna Gutt, he was discovered by a driver who wanted to leave the exit on Lindengasse with her car and is believed to have run over or hit the man. The death was classified as suspicious, and initial assumptions that the approximately 30 to 40-year-old man died due to the woman's car could not be confirmed.

The investigators ordered an autopsy. "The man had injuries that are not consistent with being hit or run over by a car," Gutt explained to the APA. She did not specify what kind of injuries they were. In any case, employees of the Vienna professional fire brigade retrieved the man from under the car, and he was likely already dead at that time. Resuscitation attempts by the professional rescue service were unsuccessful.

It remained unclear who the deceased was. According to Gutt, it was a man approximately 30 to 40 years old. "He had no identification on him," said the police spokeswoman. Investigators suspect that he was homeless. The man was wrapped in a sleeping bag.

The criminal investigators also hoped to gain further insights from the questioning of the driver. This was still ongoing in the late afternoon. According to Gutt, the woman was severely shocked.
