A verbal argument in a workers’ accommodation in Weiler ended on Friday, shortly before midnight, with calls for the emergency services and the police.
The dispute between the two residents escalated around 11:45 p.m. One of the two opponents, a 58-year-old man, grabbed a kitchen knife. The second man more or less successfully fended off his attempt to stab him. The 39-year-old suffered a heavily bleeding wound on his upper arm. The younger of the two was taken to the Feldkirch state hospital, where the wound was sewn up. The murder weapon was secured. The 58-year-old attacker let the police arrest him in his room without resistance. He was taken to the Feldkirch police station for questioning and is now being reported to the public prosecutor’s office in Feldkirch. The police issued a ban on entering and approaching him.
