Out of curiosity, he wanted to know “what happens if a killing spree is announced in Austria”. He chose the middle school in Vorarlberg at random, the Burgenland state police said on Tuesday. He was reported.
“Today there’s still a rampage at the school,” with these words the 16-year-old from the Güssing district reported to the school, triggering a police operation. The Vorarlberg State Criminal Police Office was able to quickly locate the boy via the telephone number. He was found at his home address.
During the interrogation of the accused, the young person then confessed. He stated that in the past few days he had repeatedly seen reports of a killing spree in the USA and wanted to know the consequences of such a threat in Austria. He then randomly chose a school that was far away from his hometown. The 16-year-old also said he called several schools, but couldn’t remember which.
Some data carriers were seized during the search of the house. This evidence is now being evaluated and should be used to clarify further calls. No weapons or dangerous objects were found. The young man was reported for making dangerous threats.
