Two burglars caught red-handed in Vienna-Floridsdorf!
In the late hours of the night on June 19th there was a spectacular police operation in Vienna-Floridsdorf. Two men, aged 33 and 37, were arrested on suspicion of burglary. An alert 22-year-old resident spotted the suspects in an apartment building and immediately called the police. Vienna.at reports that…
When the officers arrived at Adrienne-Gessner-Gasse, it quickly became clear that the men were not harmless guests. They had a large pair of side cutters stowed in a backpack and didn't exactly look very crafty. But that's not all - near the stop, the police found another backpack filled with bolt cutters, tools and two broken padlocks. Signs of a break-in were also found in the basement of the house.
The two Austrian citizens were immediately taken into custody. However, the 33-year-old denied his involvement in the crimes, while the 37-year-old refused to make any statements. Ultimately, the 33-year-old was released, while his accomplice was transferred to a prison, as ordered by the Vienna public prosecutor's office.

It remains to be seen whether the authorities will be able to restore citizens' sense of security through preventative measures and an increased focus on security-related issues. But one thing remains clear: a watchful eye and quick action by attentive neighbors can be crucial.
