Three Arsons in One Night: Vienna Police Request Information

Initially, at 03:45 AM, a Mercedes-Benz GLC 220d parked on Heßgasse went up in flames and was completely destroyed. While the Vienna Fire Department was still busy extinguishing the fire, officers from the Josefstadt City Police Command noticed a burning trash can on Rooseveltplatz and shortly thereafter a sausage stand on fire on Alser Straße. These fires were also extinguished by the fire department. No one was injured.

The exact amount of damage is still being determined by the fire investigators, but it is already clear that in the case of the car and the sausage stand, it is a case of serious property damage, according to the Vienna State Police Directorate upon inquiry by the APA.
