A 27-year-old Romanian was transported to the hospital with a gunshot wound to the leg after being attacked on a street in the Floridsdorf district of Vienna. The incident took place on Sandrockgasse, where the police conducted a large operation, blocking the area and warning citizens to avoid the perimeter. The victim was taken to the hospital by paramedics, and the police have begun investigations to establish the connection between them and the Romanian.
The attacker, a 52-year-old Austrian man, surrendered to the police after agents surrounded his home. During the search, several legally owned firearms were found. The motive for the attack is unclear, but a terrorist motive has been ruled out. It appears that the Romanian had a conversation with the attacker before the incident, and was subsequently shot in the knee. The victim refused to provide details about the incident in the hospital, fueling speculation about possible motives related to previous work done at the attacker's house. The investigation continues to clarify the circumstances of the attack.
