Officers from the task force for combating street crime noticed suspicious behavior from three individuals in Vienna-Landstraße on Wednesday. They were observing parking vehicles and attempting to use a jammer to prevent the locking process via remote key by the drivers.

One vehicle was not properly locked after a signal interruption. When the driver walked away, the suspects opened the car and searched the interior, but found no valuables. The three men (33, 39, 54) were provisionally arrested on suspicion of attempted commercial burglary. According to a police statement on Thursday, they were Georgians. A jammer disguised as a power bank was secured from one of the suspects. In the suspects' vehicle, investigators also found an adjustable wrench and a crowbar. The Vienna State Criminal Police Office is conducting further investigations.
