In the night from Saturday to Sunday, an unknown person put the police on alert - the report turned out to be a fake.
Siegertsbrunn
– An unknown person misled the police with a false report.
The man reported a burglary in his apartment on Haring Strasse in Siegertsbrunn during the night from Saturday, January 14th to Sunday, January 15th.
He uses an emergency call app to report.
He informed the police that at least one perpetrator was still in his apartment.
He himself was injured.
"Please hurry, I'm bleeding," was his alarming message.

The owner of the apartment has been contacted.
He was not at his home and said he knew nothing about the incident.
The hitherto unknown trigger of the operation had probably allowed himself a joke, which is, however, a criminal offence.
The police are now looking for the caller.
He faces a charge of abuse of emergency calls.
