According to the police, the crime took place at around 4.15 am. The Jet petrol station in the Cyta shopping center area was targeted.

Employee threatened while unlocking
As the 19-year-old employee was preparing to open the petrol station, two armed and masked perpetrators suddenly appeared. 

Employee threatened with a gun
"They threatened the 19-year-old employee with a silver-colored handgun, forced her into the petrol station's drinks store and demanded cash," according to the Tyrolean police.

Sudden escape without loot
What happened next is a mystery to the investigators. "The perpetrators then aborted the robbery in the drinks warehouse for an unknown reason," said the investigators. The strangers left the scene of the crime without any loot and fled on foot in a northerly direction via an adjacent parking lot. It is still unclear whether they then made off in a car.

In any case, an immediate search - including at the nearby highway on- and off-ramps - was unsuccessful. 

Victim in shock, hoping for clues
According to the police, the 19-year-old victim was unharmed but is in shock. The investigation to find the perpetrators is in full swing. The police are hoping for information. The descriptions of the perpetrators:

• Perpetrator 1: Approximately 1.7 meters tall, dressed in a dark top with hood, dark trousers, dark visor cap and gloves. He was wearing shoes with white soles and carrying a shoulder bag.

• Perpetrator 2: About 1.8 meters tall. He was wearing a dark down anorak with a hood, cargo pants with side pockets on the thighs, dark gloves and light-colored sports shoes. Masked with a dark balaclava.
