Saturday evening, two youths caused a police operation in Vienna-Leopoldstadt with a blank-firing gun.
In the Rudolf-Bednar-Park in Vienna-Leopoldstadt, several loud noises, presumably shots from a blank-firing gun, were reported on May 10th around 8:50 PM. A patrol crew
was able to encounter two youths matching the description. With the support of WEGA forces, both were apprehended after a short chase.
The suspects are a 17-year-old and a 20-year-old (nationalities: Romania, Turkey). The blank-firing gun was secured. Since the 20-year-old was subject to an active weapons ban, a report was filed. Additionally, several administrative penal reports were filed against both individuals.
