Tragedy in Vienna
Deadly family dispute: Man jumps out of window
A family tragedy has apparently occurred in Belvederegasse in Vienna: A man is dead, a woman seriously injured.
Late on Friday afternoon, a family dispute in Vienna-Wieden escalated completely. According to the regional police directorate, neighbors had heard female screams for help coming from the apartment and called the officers to an address in the Belvederegasse - Viktorgasse area. A large contingent of emergency services was immediately on the scene.
Apartment door had to be forced open
When the uniformed officers knocked on the door and rang the bell, no one answered. Instead, female screams for help could still be heard. WEGA was called in as backup. The officers from the elite unit then forced the door open. When they stormed into the apartment, they found the seriously injured resident. At the sight of the police officers, a man jumped out of the third floor onto the street. Resuscitation measures carried out immediately were unsuccessful. He died at the scene of the collision.
The 58-year-old woman, who is believed to have lived in the apartment, had to be taken to hospital with serious head injuries after the altercation. "According to the initial findings of the investigation, the woman was injured by blunt force trauma", explains police spokesman Philipp Haßlinger. During the argument, the perpetrator also attacked the 58-year-old with objects from the apartment.
Woman could not yet be questioned
The woman was unresponsive before being transferred to hospital and was therefore not fit for questioning. The background to the incident is still unclear and the Vienna State Criminal Police Office is investigating at full speed.
