On that sunny Sunday morning at the end of January, the man was still in his pajamas in the kitchen chair when the officers stormed into his apartment. According to an internal report, they had been observing the object in Vienna’s Leopoldstadt since midnight. At 8:58 a.m., the three police officers from the Upper Austria State Office of Criminal Investigation opened the door with their service weapons at the ready.
