Kirtag dispute in Vienna-Döbling leads to arrest of wanted man

As reported by Google News AT — Crime (de), a police operation responding to a brawl on Hameaustrasse in Vienna-Döbling in the early hours of Sunday took an unexpected turn.

Officers were dispatched to the address in the immediate vicinity of the Neustifter Kirtag after several persons had clashed. During investigations at the scene, it emerged that an arrest warrant had been issued against one of those involved by the Vienna public prosecutor's office.

The wanted man is a 35-year-old Turkish national, according to police. The warrant had been issued on suspicion of serious coercion.

The arrest proved anything but smooth: the 35-year-old behaved extremely aggressively towards the officers, as documented in a reader-reporter video. The police officers had to use physical force on several occasions to bring the situation under control and provisionally arrest the man.

In addition to the arrest, the 35-year-old was charged multiple times, according to police. On the orders of the Vienna public prosecutor's office, he was subsequently remanded in custody.
