The fog hung low over the emergency vehicles during the "Krone" local inspection in the Rohrbach district the day after the rampage, and the mood among the residents remains tense. 250 police officers are searching for Roland Drexler, the hunter who went on the rampage. An acquaintance of his says: "Roland certainly won't be caught alive, he certainly won't go to prison."

"Hopefully it won't be a second Stiwoll" - some of the 250 police officers searching for the fugitive, suspected amok hunter Roland Drexler (56) around Altenfelden in Upper Austria were there seven years ago in Styria, where Friedrich Felzmann remained untraced after he shot two neighbors.
