After an escalated altercation between ex-partners in Vienna-Favoriten, both parties were arrested on Wednesday night.

On the night from Tuesday to Wednesday, a dispute between former partners escalated in an apartment of a mutual acquaintance on Favoritenstraße in Vienna-Favoriten, during which a 28-year-old (citizenship: Algeria) suffered superficial cuts. He stated that his 17-year-old ex-girlfriend (citizenship: unclear) suddenly attacked him with a kitchen knife.

Both Suspects in Vienna-Favoriten Were Provisionally Arrested

The young woman denied the allegations and accused the 28-year-old of hitting and choking her. Both suspects were provisionally arrested, and the knife was found and secured. The man's minor cuts were treated by a medical service. The 17-year-old was taken to the children's ward of a hospital for clarification of her injuries. However, she was extremely uncooperative and aggressive there. Although she was under arrest, she attempted to escape.
