Two Robberies in a Short Time in Vienna-Favoriten

Two stores were robbed in quick succession on Saturday evening in Vienna-Favoriten. First, a grocery store was robbed, then a tobacconist became the target of a criminal, according to the police on Sunday.

Shortly before the employee was about to close the tobacconist, an unknown person entered, threatened the 35-year-old with a firearm, and demanded cash. A second suspect is said to have waited in front of the store. Both masked individuals managed to escape.

Employee Approached Under Pretext

Under the pretext of urgently needing to use the toilet, another robber approached the employee of the grocery store and threatened him in the office area with a firearm. The blonde criminal, who was 1.80 meters tall, made off with the cash.
