Update: Due to media attention and the resulting pressure from the search, the alleged perpetrator turned himself in at the Praterstern police station. The accused is a 16-year-old Austrian citizen.
During the interrogation, he refused to make a statement. By order of the Vienna public prosecutor's office, he was reported at large.

On November 16, 2024, around 7:30 PM, two partially masked men with drawn firearms forced a man and a woman in Vienna-Donaustadt to hand over their valuables. With the stolen mobile phones (damage amount: mid four-digit euro amount) of the victims, they fled into a wooded area.

After Robbery in Vienna-Donaustadt: Vienna Police Search for Second Suspect

The search measures immediately initiated by the police were unsuccessful. In further investigations, officers from the Vienna State Criminal Police Office were able to secure images of the two alleged perpetrators from the video surveillance system of a nearby subway station. One of the two suspects has already been identified and questioned. However, regarding the accusation and his alleged accomplice, the 17-year-old refused to make a statement. Now, the Vienna State Police Directorate has published images of the second, still unknown alleged perpetrator. Relevant information (also anonymous) is requested to be provided to the Vienna State Criminal Police Office, North Branch, at the phone number 01-31310-67800.
