The terror suspect shot dead by police in Vienna was heavily armed, wearing a bomb belt and was an IS sympathiser, the Austrian interior minister has said.
Three civilians, two men and a woman, died in the attack, which took place at six separate locations in the city – at least 13 others were injured.
Austria’s Interior Minister Karl Nehammer said security forces believed more than one attacker was involved and the investigation to try to locate them was ongoing.
He said the home of the suspect killed by police had been searched and video material seized.
“We experienced an attack yesterday evening from at least one Islamist terrorist,” he told a news conference.
