On Monday evening, the heavily armed police arrived in Vienna-Favoriten. According to initial information, a man had aimed a gun out of an apartment window. He could soon be arrested.
As the media unanimously reported, a large-scale police operation caused a stir in the tenth district of Vienna at around 8 p.m. Laxenburger Strasse was cordoned off, and a short time later dozens of police officers were reinforced by WEGA officers. This operation was also around the Rotenhofgasse and Davidgasse. The officers came heavily armed and armored with helmets and protective vests. It was all over after half an hour. The background to the large-scale operation was still unclear on Monday evening (as of 10:15 p.m.). It was called out because of a man who had aimed a gun out of an apartment window. After a short time, the suspect was taken from his apartment and arrested. The lockdowns have already been lifted, and the operation ended around 8:30 p.m. There were no threats or hostage-taking. The man is said to have owned the gun legally and was alone in the apartment at the time of the police operation.
