On Monday evening, a dispute occurred in an apartment in Vienna-Simmering between two acquaintances, culminating in a 35-year-old being threatened with death and injured with a kitchen knife while attempting to leave the apartment.

The incident happened around 11:30 PM. The men are said to have been drinking alcohol beforehand when, for reasons still unknown, the argument broke out. When the 35-year-old guest finally wanted to leave the apartment, the 40-year-old Romanian citizen allegedly threatened to kill him and attacked him with a kitchen knife. The 35-year-old, also a Romanian citizen, sustained cuts on his hand. He eventually managed to flee to the street and alert the Vienna police.

The suspect was temporarily arrested shortly thereafter in his apartment, and the alleged weapon was secured. The 40-year-old was charged with suspicion of serious coercion and serious bodily harm. He is in police custody. The victim received emergency medical care and was taken to a hospital.
