According to the current state of investigation, there is said to have been a dispute via social media, with an Austrian citizen (16) from Wiener Neustadt having a dispute with another person. A meeting at the station area was then agreed for discussion. Instead of the debate, his opponent had severely injured the young person’s face. As a result, there was a brawl, in which an 18-year-old Syrian from Vienna and a 16-year-old Syrian from Wr. Neustadt, as well as a 15-year-old Turkish citizen and a 16-year-old Austrian citizen were slightly injured.
During the search, which was immediately initiated, a total of six young people were stopped, four of them aged 16 and one each between the ages of 15 and 17. Further surveys revealed that a blank gun, stun gun and knife had also been used, although only three cartridges of the blank gun could be found.
