"Closed today" is written outside the well-known Kollerwirt inn in Tanzenberg, Carinthia, on Monday. Chef Tom Soete was the victim of a robbery. The Carinthian describes the brutal scenes to the "Krone" newspaper. 

The shock is still deep! Because boss Tom Soete is the landlord who, as reported, was brutally beaten and robbed by two burglars on the first floor of his restaurant and home on Sunday morning.
