Burglary in Vienna Store: Teenagers Fled with Cash Register

A passerby noticed a smashed shop window on the night of Thursday and reportedly observed two unknown individuals fleeing towards Salzergasse with a cash register in hand. He then notified the police emergency number. When the officers from the Bolzmanngasse police station arrived, they were able to spot two individuals hiding behind a van in Salzergasse.

Teenagers Broke Into Vienna Shop

One of the two fled upon seeing the officers. The second, a 14-year-old (citizenship: unclear) teenager, was apprehended by a female officer. A heavily damaged cash register was found on the ground behind him. The 14-year-old was subsequently taken into temporary custody. The second officer immediately pursued the fleeing suspect. The 13-year-old (citizenship: Austria) hid under a car in Lichtentalergasse and was discovered by the officer. The 13-year-old was taken to the nearest police station and then handed over to his legal guardians. The 14-year-old refused to make a statement. By order of the Vienna public prosecutor's office, he was reported at large. Both are not unknown to the authorities, the police reported on Friday.
