According to the police, fighting happened when the Guru was preaching. Six men, with one armed with a gun and the others knives, tried to attack and shoot the preacher and his two aides. Other worshippers rushed to his aid, unarmed and hit these six attackers, who were severely wounded and one of them was still in the risk of life, Bernhard Segal, an official from Emergency Center Vienna, said. The spokesman for Vienna police Michael Takacs admitted that it was hard till now to know how many people were exactly affected in this incident, because the scene was chaotic and many people fled, when the shooting happened. According to the Austria Press Agency (APA), the preaching Guru was also injured by shooting, and his two aides were severely wounded with the risk of life. The bloody incident took place in an Indian temple located in the west of the center Vienna, the 15th District, which was opened on December 25, 2005. At present, there are three Indian temples in Vienna. It was assumed by local media that the conflict between the temples like competing for worshipers might be the reason of this shooting incident.
