Witness Catches Burglar in the Act in Vienna-Döbling

Following the witness's tip, the officers promptly proceeded to the specified address in Vienna-Döbling and discovered a man with a headlamp rummaging through boxes in a fenced-off basement area.

Burglar Arrested by Vienna Police

The 33-year-old Slovak admitted that he had entered the house through the open front door, then climbed over the fence in the basement and was searching for items to sell. During the search of his fanny pack and backpack, the officers found burglary tools, including a bolt cutter, a screwdriver, pliers, and a handsaw, and secured them. Since the e-scooter and the two Slovak IDs he had with him were reported stolen, these were also secured. The second suspect was not encountered, and a search of the surrounding area was unsuccessful. The 33-year-old was charged with attempted burglary theft and, on the orders of the Vienna public prosecutor's office, was taken to a correctional facility.
