Bloody drama in the Turkish restaurant: dead and seriously injured in Vienna!

Yesterday evening, more precisely on November 7th, 2025, a terrible crime occurred in a Turkish restaurant in Vienna-Ottakring. Fatal shots were fired during an argument between several people. Loud crown This happened around 9:45 p.m. A 33-year-old Chechen man was shot dead in the dramatic confrontation. A 55-year-old companion of the victim was taken to hospital with serious injuries, where his life is in danger.

After the incident, two men turned themselves in to the police. The 38-year-old, accompanied by a legal representative, admitted being present and wielding an illegal weapon, but denied firing the fatal shot. The second man, 35 years old, reported an argument about a debt and also refused to fire the shot. Both men were temporarily arrested and taken to a prison.

Intensive investigations

The police are now intensively searching for the main fugitive perpetrator, a known Austrian citizen with a migrant background. The motive for the bloody altercation appears to be the financial affairs of those involved, which is likely to further fuel the investigations by the Vienna State Criminal Police Office.

The shooting on Thursday evening left residents of the district on edge. Neighbors report a loud argument before the shots were fired. The question arises as to how such an escalation could occur. Residents are worried because once again a violent incident occurred in a public restaurant.

What now?

The people of Vienna-Ottakring are called upon to ensure security in their neighborhoods. Police are appealing for any witnesses to come forward and provide information about the incident. Ultimately, such acts require a prudent approach in order to avoid similar incidents in the future.

Given the increased propensity for violence in the city, the question also arises as to what city politics can do to defuse such conflicts. The debate about the integration of migrants and their social participation is taking on a new dimension in light of what is happening. Clear solutions are needed here to promote social harmony and security in Vienna.

As a local community we now stand together and hope that such incidents can be prevented in the future. The hope for peaceful coexistence remains, even if the shadow of violence covers the city.
