A conspicuously small, hooded young man allegedly sprayed nine graffiti with IS slogans on buildings within only two hours, mainly in the railway station area of. St. Pölten. The Office for the Protection of the Constitution is investigating.

The sprayer, masked with a balaclava, is said to be only 1.60 metres tall. He was dressed completely in black when he sprayed Islamist-motivated graffiti on walls in the railway station area of St. Pölten on Wednesday evening.

When the unknown man noticed a witness who had observed him doing the damage to property, he fled. According to the police, the slogans sprayed in black or white paint are undoubtedly associated with the so-called Islamic State (IS), which is why the State Office for the Protection of the Constitution and Counterterrorism (LVT) has taken over the investigation.
