Two unknown individuals robbed a jeweler on Friday morning in Marchtrenk, in the district of Wels-Land.
The 64-year-old jewelry dealer managed to bring the apparently unarmed perpetrator to the ground. Subsequently, an accomplice arrived and helped his partner escape. The jeweler was slightly injured. Initially, there was no trace of the perpetrators, reported the police.
At 8:50 AM, only one perpetrator initially entered the store. He pretended to be interested in an expensive gold chain. When the jeweler placed the jewelry tray on the sales counter to show it to the supposed customer, the latter grabbed the jewelry and attempted to flee. However, the jeweler managed to catch the man and brought him to the ground. Then, an accomplice entered the store and pushed the jeweler aside. The two perpetrators fled with several pieces of jewelry in an unknown direction.
The police were in a large-scale operation with several patrols and a helicopter. However, the extensive search initially remained unsuccessful. The two suspects are described as being 1.75 to 1.80 meters tall, very slim, and of dark complexion. One of the men had a mustache - both had black hair, were dressed in dark clothing, and spoke broken German. Information is requested to be reported to any police station.
