WEGA Major Operation at Vienna General Hospital: Suspect Detained

The hospital's security personnel noticed the 47-year-old man, who had threatened AKH staff in early April and was banned from the premises. Due to the man's possible armament, the police deployed Cobra, WEGA, and readiness units to the Vienna AKH in Vienna-Alsergrund. The entrance area of the children's and youth clinic was secured.

The suspect was then encountered and detained by WEGA and Cobra forces in Vienna-Landstraße. Apparently, the 47-year-old had left the hospital on his own. The man was in police custody on Friday evening. The further official action was taken over by the Vienna State Criminal Police Office. Whether the man was actually armed is the subject of ongoing investigations. The man's wife is admitted as a patient at the AKH. The 47-year-old had complained about inadequate treatment in early April and had also made threats against the staff.
