The “Kurier” also reported online that the contact addresses of the alleged killer on Fuhrmannsgasse and in a block of flats in front of the St. Pölten University Hospital had been “turned over” by special forces.

Heavily armed Cobra officials searched the premises together with the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution and Against Terrorism (LVT).

It is an unadorned residential building from the 1960s on Fuhrmannsgasse in the town of St. Pölten, where the researchers are working. Only a parked minibus of the Executive Branch indicates an operation in the morning. The fact that police investigations are underway cannot be seen from the street with the APA’s on-site inspection. Apart from the laughter of the children, which can be heard from an open window of the property, there is a total calm.

Investigations are also underway the day after the attack in Vienna on a large apartment building on Propst Führer-Straße in the immediate vicinity of the St. Pölten University Hospital. An apartment on the second floor is scrutinized by criminalists, as can be seen. Crime scene investigators can be seen over and over again. A company vehicle is also parked in a parking lot.

Concern for political representatives

Politicians in the city of St Pölten were particularly concerned about the terrorist act. The mayor of St. Pölten took a position on Facebook: “Yesterday’s attack in Vienna shows us how important it is to be united against all forms of hatred and the inestimable value that our solidarity society has. We look at Vienna deeply concerned and dismayed. “

ÖP Deputy Mayor Matthias Adl also reacted. “The despicable act of terrorism in Vienna affects me. My thoughts are with the families of the victims and with those who are still fighting for their lives. Adl sees the attack fueled “by hatred of our basic values, our way of life and our democracy, in which all people are equal in rights and dignity.” Adl asks that this hatred not give space and we stand together, “so that the world can see: terror is completely inadequate to shake our democratic society!”

FPÖ Councilor Klaus Otzelberger, like the other two faction leaders, expresses his condolences to all the victims and their families. “Thank you to all the emergency services who give their lives for our safety.”
