While a pensioner and his wife, who was in a wheelchair, were found dead at the central cemetery, a man died in the course of an argument with another man from a stab wound in Vinzenzgasse in Graz-Eggenberg, the police confirmed a report from the online edition of the “Kleine Zeitung”. According to the first investigations, the couple wanted to end their lives together at the central cemetery. It is still unclear whether everyone shot themselves, or one of the two shot the other and then himself, it said when asked by APA. Both the 75-year-old man and his 71-year-old wife were found dead near their previously reserved grave. They had a suicide note with them and a pistol was also seized. It appears from the letter that the motive was the woman’s illness.
Almost at the same time, the police were called to a dispute between two men. One of the two, said to be in his early 60s, stabbed the other and severely injured his neck. There was no rescue for the victim, who was probably in his mid-30s. The suspect was arrested. There was no information about the exact murder weapon.
