A security employee at the Parndorf outlet center confronted two women after allegedly seeing them steal money from a shoulder bag. The confrontation quickly turned physical: the women, aged 22 and 24, began biting and scratching him.
One of the suspects initially managed to escape, but police stopped her shortly afterward, authorities said. Officers also found a four-digit euro sum in one suspect’s handbag and secured the money.
Both women were taken to the Eisenstadt prison on orders from the public prosecutor’s office. Further investigations are continuing.
