A 43-year-old man (nationality: Syrian) was provisionally arrested by officers from the Margareten municipal police station after he sprayed a fire extinguisher in a church and attacked the police officers who had been called to the scene. The officers had initially been called to the church because of a person on the rampage. After consulting with the Vienna public prosecutor’s office, the suspect was taken to a prison. Charges were brought on suspicion of damage to property, resisting arrest and attempted grievous bodily harm.
