Autopsy result
Automatically saved draft
After the horrific incident on Wednesday afternoon, when a mother and her two children were found dead in a house in the district of Tulln (Lower Austria), new details came to light on Thursday afternoon: According to information from "Krone", the daughters - five and eight years old - were suffocated. Only the 29-year-old had injuries from a firearm ...
The new details about the case in the municipality of Muckendorf-Wipfing were confirmed late Thursday afternoon by the autopsy results of the two children. The mother's suicide is considered a possibility, but further investigations are essential.
Shotgun test should provide information
According to Stefan Pfandler, head of the Lower Austrian State Office of Criminal Investigation, there are currently "no concrete indications of other persons involved". Nevertheless, such a scenario "should not be disregarded". A gunshot residue analysis could provide clarification, but it may take several days to find out. In any case, a handgun was seized in the area.
The mother is said to have legally owned these and other weapons. According to "Krone" information, she was a hunter, the father of the two children is a police officer.
"Have to put the puzzle together"
Further interrogations from the family are still pending. "We have to put the puzzle together", said Pfandler. It would be "too early and dubious" to commit to one option.
The autopsies of the two girls - aged five and eight - were carried out on Thursday. According to "Krone" information, the children died of asphyxiation.
The crime scene is still under investigation. Until now, the police had concentrated mainly on the immediate area of the crime, but now other rooms in the residential property are also being examined.
Bodies discovered in bedroom
Wailing sirens and flashing blue lights disturbed the idyll in the small community on Wednesday. Because the 29-year-old mother had not turned up for work, an acquaintance became worried.
The woman is said to have then contacted the father of the two girls, who had a key to the house. He is also said to have discovered the three bodies in a bedroom on the upper floor.
