16-Year-Old with Stab Wounds in Vienna School: No Third-Party Fault

The discovery of the teenager in a restroom facility at a Brigittenau high school triggered a major police operation because an unknown perpetrator was initially assumed. The student has now stated that she injured herself, according to the police on Monday.

The girl in Vienna cited the desire for attention as the motive

During investigations by the Vienna State Criminal Police Office, Center/East branch, it quickly became apparent that there was probably no involvement of a third party. The knife was found during the search of the school building, and the first indications of self-injury by the student emerged. Even before the scheduled summons, the 16-year-old finally came to the branch of the State Criminal Police Office and stated during the interrogation that she had injured herself. The girl cited the desire for attention as the motive.
