The Volksgarten in Linz is currently on everyone's lips because, according to a survey, the people of Linz feel unsafe here - the current incident probably reinforces this feeling

The right three ladies have found each other! In broad daylight, they got into such a fight over a tablet in the Volksgarten in Linz that even witnesses intervened. And when the police had broken up the "ladies'" brawl, they also discovered another crime.

A 38-year-old Bosnian woman set everything off shortly after 2 p.m. on Thursday when she stole a medicine from the bag of a 24-year-old Linz woman in the Volksgarten in Linz. When the victim demanded her tablet back, the 38-year-old pushed her down.

A Viennese woman (39) was the first to intervene, as she is a friend of the 24-year-old, and an open brawl ensued. The Bosnian woman went to the ground, the Viennese woman held her down and the young Linz woman continued to kick her. Witnesses intervened because of the massive attacks and also called the emergency services.

Trio known to the authorities
The two attackers finally retreated, but took a bag and a sack that the 38-year-old had with her. However, this theft then uncovered another theft. When the police stopped the three "ladies", who were known to the police and judiciary, in the Volksgarten, they also checked the contents of the bag and sack. 

The loot had already been stolen beforehand
And it turned out: The bag contained three sweaters with the anti-theft devices still attached - they had been stolen shortly before.

The Linz woman and the Viennese woman were taken into custody, the Bosnian woman to hospital. However, the injuries are not too serious. Charges are now being brought.
