- Since Halloween night, authorities have reported numerous tampered sweets nationwide in Germany containing needles, nails, screws and other metal objects.
- Cases emerged in several Austrian states; authorities said a girl was slightly injured, and Vienna established an investigative unit.
- A connection remains unclear; Austria’s investigations chief did not rule out online links, while the ministry in Mainz saw no verified evidence of nationwide coordination.
- Europol will not set up a new task force but will support requests from national authorities through an existing project.
“We will do everything humanly possible to solve this cowardly and despicable crime.”— Austrian Interior Minister Gerhard Karner, speaking at a press conference about the tampered sweets.
