Door Was Not Completely Closed: This Was Discovered by the Police in Vienna-Liesing

The police looked through a not fully closed door in Vienna-Liesing on Wednesday - and saw drugs.

An operation surrounding an apparently stolen car led the police in Vienna-Liesing on Wednesday by chance to an apartment used for storing drugs. According to a spokesperson, a total of five people were arrested. The amount of drugs seized is still unclear.

Men Approached Car

The operation was set in motion by a traffic regulation officer who, during their work, came across a car reported as stolen. As the alerted police approached the vehicle, three men also approached the car. However, they immediately ran away when they saw the officers.

One of the suspects was arrested on the open street, while the other two ran into a nearby residential building. They were also apprehended by the police shortly thereafter.

Man Behaved Suspiciously

During the operation, the officers encountered a resident of an apartment in the hallway who behaved suspiciously. When the officers looked through the not fully closed door, they saw drugs that were apparently stored in the apartment. Subsequently, the man and another resident were also arrested. "The cases have nothing to do with each other at all," said a spokesperson. The amount of drugs seized was still not determined in the evening.
