Céline Winkelmuller was set upon by five males after she left her parent’s flat in the Floridsdorf district in the north of the capital Vienna.

The 15-year-old said she was set upon by the males, whom she thought were from Turkey after she had gone outside for some fresh air.

Ms Winkelmuller said: "Two of them grabbed me and dragged me into a corner, two of them hit me and the fifth took away my mobile phone and my jacket." After the brutal attack, the teenagers fled and left their victim unconscious, according to local media.
