On Monday afternoon, there was a WEGA operation in Vienna-Meidling following an intentional serious bodily injury.

Around 5:15 PM, a confrontation occurred between three men, during which one of the participants was injured. When the Vienna police arrived, only the injured person was still at the scene. He was given first aid by the Vienna professional rescue service and then taken to a hospital. It turned out that there had been a verbal and physical altercation beforehand, during which a 39-year-old was injured on the finger with a sharp object.

Witnesses reported to the police that one of the participants had fled into a nearby stairwell. Officers from the special unit WEGA were indeed able to locate an 18-year-old Syrian national, who was involved in the dispute, in the basement area of the building. However, he is not believed to be responsible for the injury to the 39-year-old, but rather a relative of the 18-year-old, who fled in an unknown direction. Investigations are ongoing.
