🇦🇹 Austria General Discussion

[Tender Branson]

A 20-year old local woman has been shot dead yesterday night here in Zell am See in her own home by an unknown perpetrator ...

SWAT teams are currently searching for the suspect. The motive is also unknown (even though the tabloid "Ö24" speculates about a drug connection).

The crime scene is not far away from my apartment, like a mile or so.

The 2 perpetrators (18 and 20) have been sentenced to 12 and 10 years in prison yesterday.

Not really a crime, but a plane has crashed today near where I live ...

Not really a crime, but a plane has crashed today near where I live ...

3 people were on board.

A man (who died) and his 2 daughters aged 9 and 11 (both of whom were heavily injured).

If you look at the wreckage, I guess it would have been better if they also died with him ...

The family is from Germany.

Today's the last day of the year and that's a pretty interesting finding:

This year, there have been "only" 9 murders in Vienna (which now has a population of 1.8 million)

The previous record low was 13 murders in 2003.

Vienna had an average of 40 murders each year in the 1980s, with the population back then only 1.45 million.

That means the murder rate dropped from 2.8 cases/100.000 people in the 1980s to only 0.5 now.

Also, the newspaper report said that since early 2009, all murder cases have been solved since then. So, a 100% clearance rate for the past 5 years.

...

I just checked comparable US cities such as Houston (2.2 million people) or Philly (1.6 million).

Philly had around 250 murders this year and Houston around 220.

With one week left to go, the Vienna police has announced today that there were 15 killings this year - which is the long-term average.

Only 1 of the 15 is still unsolved.

In nearby Lower Austria, 19 murders took place this year, among them 15 women.

Also 1 case not solved yet.

At least we've contained him to one megathread.

Stop being such dicks please.

Racist ?

Have you guys not read the major crime cases I posted that were committed by citizens ?

Why blame me when a majority of murders are committed by non-citizens or people with migrant background ? Blame these people, not me.

Not in Austria, but just down the border in Südtirol:

A car driven by a heavily intoxicated 28-year old local guy hit a group of 17 young German tourists at 1am in the night.

6 dead, several seriously injured.

21 pages of creepy racist profiling.

can you show me where?

If anyone highlights an unexpected and persistent truth about terrorism or other criminal activity based in an ethnic or religious ideological basis, some overly sensitive left wing idealist will get triggered.

I think everyone knows that, and as such, it has become the right of every social media genius to spin around "racist" chants until we reach echo chamber proportions more commonly witnessed in the USGD.

The meaninglessness of this process is evident in the vast number of messages on this forum which follow this formula.

Talking about so-called persistent truths about crime and terrorism based on ethnic or religious identification is borderline Nazi territory. I'm not exaggerating. Or if you prefer, it's just filthy unmitigated racism.

Whine and cry all you want about being called out by the left anytime folks like you and tender decide to create a thread that focuses overwhelmingly on crimes committed by scary Brown muzzies rather than crime in general. That's not triggering left is, that's being Unapologetic racist. And I will happily call Tender and similar racist twits like yourself about it every time and unapologetically.

So step off, "Mate".

Stop spreading such Trumpian fake news !

If you go on page 1 of this thread, post 1 - you will see that I don't start a thread about crimes committed by "brown people", but about crime in general.

Along this thread, I have posted numerous crimes committed by Austrian citizens.

It's not my problem that about half of murders are committed by non-citizens.

It is a statistical fact, no matter if you like it or not. You gotta deal with it.

But don't tell such blatant lies.

1st murder of 2020:

Crime has dropped by more than 50% in the last month since the lockdown on March 16:

There were 2 murders, compared with 6 last year.

A man killed his 80+ year old father and another man his 80+ year old mother.

Someone's driving around in Carinthia right now, shooting people dead at different locations:

2 victims already, one woman among them.

Agh, had one of those here almost 10 years ago to the day.

This is also very uncommon here.

Anyway, it was a relationship crime and not something random:

A 60-year old man from Carinthia first killed his ex-wife (62) in her home with an axe.

He then went to another town and shot+killed his current girlfriend (56) out of his car. The woman was walking on the street and was instantly killed. A small child nearby had to witness the killing.

The police was called and all streets and highways were closed, but the man still somehow managed to get across the border into Italy (maybe before, because the border is not far away).

At a parking lot, Italian (or Austrian ?) police spotted the car and approached the suspect in his car. The suspect gave 3 warning shots out of his car. As police officers came closer, he shot himself fatally.

It is rumoured that the suspect is also a police officer.
