A knife-wielding robber threatened a supermarket cashier in Vienna’s Landstraße and stole cash in the upper three-figure euro range, police said. The incident happened on 5 November 2026 at 13:30. During the robbery, a second suspect waited in the store’s exit area while the first demanded money. After the cashier was threatened with the knife, the two suspects fled toward Erdbergstraße. An immediate manhunt for the pair was launched, but it did not succeed. Police released descriptions of both suspects. The first man was taller, dressed in black and wore a dark scarf over his face. He carried a long-bladed knife and a black Nike backpack. The second suspect was smaller in stature. He wore a black trouser with a white spot on the left knee, black shoes, and a dark hood or cap. He also carried a dark backpack with writing and wore a dark jacket, believed to be Under Armour. The State Criminal Police Office in Vienna took over the investigation. Tips, including anonymous information, can be submitted to the Vienna LKA at 01/31310-33800.
