Over the weekend, there were attacks on Krampus figures during parades in Moosburg and Spittal an der Drau in Carinthia. Three people were injured, and a 24-year-old even lost consciousness.
On Sunday, just before 3:00 pm, an initially unknown person at a parade in Moosburg pulled a 24-year-old runner from the Völkermarkt district from behind by the horns of his Krampus mask. As a result, the 24-year-old lost consciousness and collapsed. The young man was taken to the Klagenfurt clinic.
Half an hour later, a 55-year-old man from the Klagenfurt-Land district damaged the Krampus mask of an 18-year-old Klagenfurt resident by pulling on the horns until one horn broke. A witness clearly identified the man as the one who had injured the 24-year-old. The 55-year-old will be reported.
Already on Saturday evening, there were also two incidents at a Krampus parade in Spittal an der Drau. A 22-year-old from the Spittal district hit the Krampus mask of a 23-year-old participant from Styria with the flat of his hand for an initially unknown reason. This injured the participant.
In addition, a 14-year-old from the Villach-Land district was grabbed and shaken by the horns of his Krampus mask by an initially unknown spectator during the Krampus parade. The boy was also injured.
